Perspectives. 2: strategic cultural perspective

by Ralph Winter, Stephen Hawdon

Perspective 2b All About Christian MissionBible, History, Culture, and Strategy bMission has transformed the minority religions of the Israeli frontier into todays huge world religions. Where does the great power of Christian mission come from? "Perspective" is a collection of 152 articles written by missionaries and missiologists. Since its inception in 1981, it has undergone several revisions to its changing mission environment, and this book is the fourth edition. In the fourth edition, we have published about 60 new papers, and decentralized the book, which was originally one volume, into two more volumes to approach the mission more finely.Volume 2 discusses cultural and strategic perspectives. Mission is smooth when it is done with proper strategies considering the culture of the area. It is cultural and strategic dimension that one should pay attention to when Christianity enters into another group of world view. If volume 1 focuses on the theoretical dimension, it can be said that volume 2 is placed on practical level.
