Book excerpt: This book is the most comprehensive work on intercultural communication theory and practice for cross-cultural Christian workers since the 1991 publication of David Hesselgrave's 'Communicating Christ Cross-Culturally: An Introduction to Missionary Communication'. It is written for the serious reader in Christian cross-cultural ministry and for graduate and postgraduate study. It considers significant developments in the electronic media such as the Internet, smart phone and other electronic resources. Thinking styles, psychology of art, ethnomusic, ethnodrama and methods of oral communication are included. Gender issues and the importance of personal relationships as a context for Christian ministry are explored as well as ethical issues in communication and issues in communicating with oral-aural people, shame-honour and fear-power cultures. It seeks to be culturally inclusive although it reflects the writer's culture of origin. The use of case histories and critical incidents are used to illustrate the text and ground the theory in reality. A companion website is provided for digital resources: video clips, ethnomusic, ethnodrama, visual arts, case histories, case studies and learning facilitator resources.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Effectively communicate Christ across Cultures The gospel message transcends cultures, but human communication does not. In Transforming Communication missionary and professor Vee J. D-Davidson provides principles for the intercultural communication of Christ. Using her twenty-five-plus years of experience teaching as a Westerner in Asia as a starting point, Davidson provides transferable principles that encourage awareness of context-specific issues and that see opportunities for intercultural communication as wholly unique opportunities, regardless of any perceived communication barriers. Readers from multiple different cultures will be able to apply the principles presented by use of relevant examples, illustrations, and enlightening insights provided from a wide range of Global South and Global North multicultural and intercultural perspectives. Transforming Communication offers practical principles to encourage and challenge Christian readers to build relationships that might well require engaging with issues that bring them out of their comfort zone but, the book also offers insights and encouraging devotional nuggets that feed into a triad of knowledge-impartation, self-examination and challenge, along with spiritual enrichment for the task.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We live in a multicultural society. But Christians often do not know how to engage those of other faiths. As a result, many Christians hesitate to talk about Christianity with others in any kind of evangelistic way. Jay Moon and Bud Simon unpack the intercultural dynamics that Christians need to understand when encountering people from different communities and cultural backgrounds. Regarding evangelism from the perspective of four major worldviews (guilt/justice, shame/honor, fear/power, and indifference/belonging with purpose), this book demonstrates contextual evangelism approaches that are relevant, biblical, and practical. The authors draw on new research conducted with hundreds of participants that reveal concrete ways to communicate the gospel effectively across cultures. Sharing one's faith does not require attacking other religions; rather, we can engage at the worldview level in order to address people's deepest concerns. Greater understanding provides us with better skills for relational connection, empathy, and effective witness.
