J. Dudley Woodberry
Dr. J Dudley Woodberry (born 1934) is dean emeritus and senior professor of missions at Fuller Theological Seminary School of World Missions, specializing in Islamic studies. While most of Woodberry’s time is currently spent teaching and writing for scholarly publications, he has also served as a missionary and teacher in Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, and Afghanistan (amongst many other Islamic countries). Woodberry has acted as editor for (from most recent to oldest): ''Paradigm Shifts in Christian Witness: Insights from Anthropology, Communication, and Spiritual Power'' (2008); R''esources for Peacemaking in Muslim-Christian Relations: Contributions from the Conflict Transformation Project'' (2006); ''Muslim and Christian Reflections On Peace: Divine and Human Dimensions'' (2005); ''Reaching the Resistant: Barriers and Bridges for Mission'' (1998); ''Missiological Education for the Twenty-First Century: The Book, the Circle, and the Sandals'' (1996); and ''Muslims and Christians on the Emmaus Road: Crucial Issues in Witness Among Muslims'' (1991)
Woodberry’s primary contribution to the field of Islamic-Christian relations has been in the area of Christian evangelism to Muslims, theological comparative works, as well as numerous reflections and articles concerning relevant topics in the world of Christian Muslim relations. Woodberry also emphasizes a holistic approach to missions that is theologically sound, learned in behavioural sciences, and is not ignorant of mission and church history.
== Background ==
Woodberry was born to American missionary parents working in the Chinese province of Shandong in 1934. He became a Christian “in a childlike way” at the age of three while his family was on furlough back in the States. Upon returning to China, Woodberry recalls surviving an incident where he fell into the freezing Yantai harbour and barely survived the subsequent pneumonia. This incident (in Woodberry’s own words), “led to a sense that I had been saved for a purpose”.〔"My Pilgrimage in Mission: J. Dudley Woodberry." Mission Resources http://bansuklee.com/xe/libms/65 (accessed March 1, 2011).〕 Woodberry would later be sent to the China Inland Mission School in Chefoo where, due to the outbreak of World War II, he would be detained as a prisoner of war by the Japanese. Eventually Woodberry (and his brothers and sisters) were exchanged for Japanese civilians in America and, after a year of separation from his parents, he was reunited with them.
