Description
Summary:Over the past two years Practical Anthropology has had an exchange of discussion on the nature and relevance of Christian education in the Cross-cultural situation. It started with an editorial which posed very briefly the problem of the effectiveness of our witness to bring to men an understanding of God and of their relation to him.1 It continued when William J. Samarin raised the question of goals for Christian education among non-Christian peoples.2 Samarin agreed with the major point of the editorial, but raised important practical issues in defense of the present approach to education. Chester J. Jump of Congo, Wesley J. Culshaw of India, and the editor made some remarks in reply. Now Charles R. Taber discusses the issues again.
