Summary:The issue that concerns this paper is the effect of globalization on the conduct of North American missions. The thesis of the paper is that globalization is just a phase of world history and should not drive mission methods to the extent that it is doing. Rather, mission methods must be firmly rooted in biblical theology and refined through historical analysis. Without the right foundations, current mission methods merely create problems for succeeding generations.
