Title
World Mission (Second Edition): An Analysis of the World Christian Movement - Paperback
by Jonathan Lewis (Editor)
An Analysis of the World Christian Movement
Worldview for Christian Witness is a foundational follow-up to the Perspectives on the World Christian Movement course, offering a deeper dive into how cultural worldviews shape the way people interpret and respond to the gospel.
Drawing from decades of anthropological insight and missionary experience, Charles H. Kraft explores the "deep structures" of culture--those unconscious assumptions and values that govern behavior, belief, and spiritual openness. By distinguishing between surface-level cultural expressions and core worldview elements, this book equips evangelical missionaries, church leaders, and ministries to communicate the gospel more effectively and respectfully across cultures. Kraft challenges readers to examine their own worldview, recognize hidden cultural barriers, and embrace a biblically informed approach to cross-cultural engagement.
A full revision of the original three-volume series integrating essential and relevant articles from the readers, Perspectives on the World Christian Movement (Ralph D. Winter and Steven C. Hawthorne, editors) and the Perspectives Study Guide (Steven C. Hawthorne, editor).
Author Biography
Jonathan Lewis was born in Argentina as one of eight children, and is a third generation missionary. He and his wife Dawn served as missionaries from 1976-1997 in Honduras, Peru, Mexico and Argentina. The development of ministry training resources and programs has been the predominant thread in the Lewis' ministry. With a vision to support and train those involved in the emerging missions movement in Latin America, they developed the World Mission course in Spanish, first published in Argentina in 1986. Jon and Dawn spent much of the following years in Argentina with their four children, promoting missionary training, serving the COMIBAM missions movement, and helping establish the Center for Cross-Cultural Missionary Training (CCMT) in Cordoba. Jon also pursued studies in Human Resource Development and was awarded a Ph.D. from Colorado State University in 1992. From 1992-2006, Jon served as a staff member of the World Evangelical Alliance Missions Commission. For five of those years, the Lewises lived in Canada and helped develop the Gateway Missionary Training Centre, while Jon also initiated the ACTS Intercultural Ministry Centre at Trinity Western University and taught in their cross-cultural ministries program. He continues with his commitment to missionary training, working with International Missionary Training Network. Jon and Dawn live in Ferndale, Washington, USA, and enjoy the outdoors.
