The International Bulletin of Mission Research, or IBMR, is an academic journal covering Christian missions published by the Overseas Ministries Study Center (OMSC).[1][2] It was established in 1950 by R. Pierce Beaver.[3] It started to publish quarterly since January 1977, with the initiatives of Gerald H. Anderson, director of the OMSC between 1976 and 2000.[4] The journal has changed its name from The International Bulletin of Missionary Research to the International Bulletin of Mission Research to avoid the concept of colonialism brought by the term “missionary” in the previous centuries of cross-cultural ministries.[5] The current editor is Thomas J. Hastings.[6]
