Theory to Practice in Vulnerable Mission

Meer over het boek

Challenging the traditional approach of Western missionaries, Jim Harries emphasizes the importance of sustainable ministry that empowers local communities. Drawing from his 24 years in Africa, he critiques short-term solutions that foster dependency and advocates for "vulnerable mission," which utilizes local languages and resources. By integrating personal experiences, postmodern insights, and anthropological perspectives within a Christian framework, Harries argues for a more effective and replicable model of mission work in the twenty-first century.
