Many a Westerner has had a cross-cultural experience of honor and
shame. First there are those stuttering moments in the new social
landscape. Then after missed cues and social bruises comes the
revelation that this culture-indeed much of the world-runs on an
honor-shame operating system. When Western individualism and its
introspective conscience fails to engage cultural gears, how can we
shift and navigate this alternate code? And might we even learn to
see and speak the gospel differently if we did? In Ministering in
Honor-Shame Cultures Jayson Georges and Mark Baker help us decode
the cultural script of honor and shame. What's more, they assist us
in reading the Bible anew through the lens of honor and shame,
often with startling turns. And they offer thoughtful and practical
guidance in ministry within honor-shame contexts. Apt stories,
illuminating insights and ministry-tested wisdom complete this
well-rounded guide to Christian ministry in honor-shame cultures.
