Why should the church be concerned about cultures? Louis J.
Luzbetak began to answer this question twenty-five years ago with
the publication of The Church and Cultures: An Applied Anthropology
for the Religious Worker. Reprinted six times and translated into
five languages, it became an undisputed classic in the field. Now,
by popular demand, Luzbetak has thoroughly rewritten his work,
completely updating it in light of contemporary anthropological and
missiological thought and in face of current world conditions.
Serving as a handbook for a culturally sensitive ministry and
witness, The Church and Cultures introduces the non-anthropologist
to a wealth of scientific knowledge directly relevant to pastoral
work, religious education social action and liturgy - in fact, to
all forms of missionary activity in the church. It focuses on a
burning theological issue: that of contextualization, the process
by which a local church integrates its understanding of the Gospel
("text") with the local culture ("context").
