The Fourth Lausanne Congress (Seoul, 2024) marked the 50th anniversary of the 1974 Lausanne Congress on World Evangelization, but it was also the opportunity to assess how present-day evangelicalism that the Global South largely influences understands its mission to the world. The theme of the congress was “Let the church declare and display Christ together” and well summarized the focus of the congress. As a European theologian, I participated in the congress. This presentation will offer some reflections based on that experience. They will open a window to the theological trends, influences, and directions that are at work in global evangelicalism.
