330 _aIn a forthright and objective way, this stimulating book engages the reader in examination of the issues faced by today’s Christian missionaries. The divine call, recruitment, theological issues, cultural problems, political involvement, methodology, indigenization – all these topics, and many more, are discussed by a veteran missionary, teacher, and writer whose familiarity with worldwide Christian missions, both past and present, enables him to separate fact from fiction, myth from reality, the peripheral from the germane.
