Summary: | "Church planters face three challenges. First, they must be accepted by their target audience as viable messengers. Second, their message must be understandable to the worldview of their listeners. Third, the community they are forming must be a valid form of community for their audience. Roland Muller does a masterful job of bringing these three challenges together in one book addressing Western, Muslim, Hindu, and Buddhist audiences. Thirty one chapters and over 320 discussion questions."--Back cover |
