This seminal work of Christian missions explores the complex and often fraught relationship between missionaries and the cultures they seek to serve. The book argues that effective Christian missions must be grounded in a deep understanding of local cultures, customs, and traditions, and must be carried out with sensitivity, humility, and respect. The book draws on examples from missionary work around the world and provides practical insights for modern-day missionaries and cross-cultural workers.
