The goals of Volume V are to assist the missionary in successfully
arriving on the mission field and remaining there with an effective
ministry. Two major problems in recruitment and deployment of
missionaries are the great length of time missionaries are on
deputation, and the 50% attrition rate for return to the field
after the first term of service. This volume addresses both issues.
Beginning with the call of the missionary, there is a detailed
discussion of deputation, and a smaller section on mission boards.
Many missionaries are not able to successfully adapt to the foreign
field. A substantial section of the book on cultural anthropology
outlines many of the adjustments for the missionary, as well as the
symptoms and treatment of culture shock. There is a short review of
the importance of worldview in approaching evangelism, and a brief
section on the missionary's adaptation upon returning to the USA.
