Converting Access Challenged Nations Distinct Cultures Part 1 ... English
Description
Navigating cultural barriers is the most significant challenge in effective evangelism, more critical than language barriers which can be overcome with technology.
• Individualist Western cultures and collective immigrant cultures operate with fundamentally different values systems
• Apostolic churches already function more collectivistically than secular Western culture, giving us a unique advantage in reaching immigrants
• Approximately one in six people in North America comes from a collective cultural background
• Time perception differs dramatically between cultures - relationship focus vs task focus
• Hierarchical respect structures must be understood when evangelizing collective cultures
• Patronage relationships can be sanctified for kingdom purposes when approaching immigrant communities
• Global migration represents a strategic opportunity to reach access-challenged nations through their emigrants
• Hospitality is not just fellowship but specifically means "love of strangers" and is biblically commanded
• Cultural offenses often occur unintentionally, with neither party aware of the disconnect
• Collective cultures process through shame rather than guilt, requiring different gospel approaches
