Intercultural Ministry: Readings on a Global Task is a reader that brings together some of the best current thinking on the cross-cultural mission of the Church. Because of the ease of travel and the wide use of new technology, the world is becoming much “smaller.” Christians are called to be involved in the world, but must be more than just involved -- we must be effective. This reader seeks to present ideas and means by which we can “touch” the world in ways that will honor God and bring hope to those who need to hear the Good News. It covers a wide range of topics, from culture to evangelism, from theology of missions to globalization, and from short term missions to partnership in ministry. All the articles have questions and group activities to stimulate further thought and application.
