Transferable Principles for Intercultural Planting of Spiritually Healthy Churches Based on Two Decades of Involvement in Rural and Remote Urban China

The book brings out principles related to intercultural missions, church-planting and training of local believers. They include aspects of missions praxis which challenge, modify, and/or supplement material in classic and current textbooks. The principles, which centre around affirmation of dignity and empowerment of local people to bring about transformation, are re-workable in multiple settings including those resistant to the Gospel – particularly in restricted contexts or amongst unreached peoples where deep-rooted religious systems prevail and hostility to the Gospel is prevalent.
