When You Cross Cultures (New Edition)

This wonderfully comprehensive introduction to missionary life and work comes from a person whose long and effective experience in ministry adds authenticity to what he writes. I am happy that some topics vital to missions, which are usually neglected in books of this nature, like the need to recover the lost art of disciple-making, are tackled with expert knowledge here. Anyone thinking of the call to missions would be greatly enriched by reading this book.
Ajith Fernando, National Director, Youth for Christ, Sri Lanka

“I was excited to read this revised new edition of the book, When You Cross Cultures which was first published in 1990. While many books on the subject of crossing cultures have been written, this book carries a strong Asian flavor with reflections from an Asian perspective. The book has a wonderful simplicity with a richness in real-life stories. The book is strongly biblically based but pays attention to contemporary situations – a very practical book for those ministering in cross-cultural situations as well as for church leaders.”
