I've just read that veteran missiologist Ralph D. Winter passed away on May 20 at the age of 84.
According to the US Center for World Mission website, Winter died peacefully at home in Pasadena, California, "surrounded by three of his four daughters, his wife Barb, and a few friends."
I think it's amazing how and to what extent he has influenced many people about modern missions and missiology. He has indeed leave behind a legacy, and a vision.
Read:Pastor John Piper's personal tribute to Winter. "His vision of the advance of the gospel was breathtaking," writes Piper, calling Winter's emphasis on unreached peoples "globally seismic in the transformation of missions."
