Synopsis

Navigating the Major Decisions of Cross-Cultural Service


Missionaries face a constant barrage of new ideas and methods to help them deal with cross-cultural decisions. Some fresh recruits arrive in their adopted country full of plans, and with the right methods, but without understanding how to choose from them.


Career-Defining Crises in Mission is written to help missionaries evaluate their ministry approaches and to pursue those that place relationships over programs. Each of the 12 chapters takes a well-known missiological principle and, instead of focusing on the theory behind it, uses Bible studies, illustrations, true stories, and practical suggestions to encourage missionaries to make decisions that cultivate relationships with people as they choose mission methods.
