Many a Westerner has experienced the missed cues and social bruises that come with learning that another culture 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 Jayson Georges and Mark Baker's Ministering in Honor-Shame Cultures, readers are given assistance in decoding the cultural script of honor and shame, as well as in reading the Bible anew through the lens of honor and shame, often with startling turns. Drawing from scholarly discussions on honor and shame from multiple sources, including biblical studies, theology, anthropology, and intercultural studies, Georges and Baker will provide missionaries and local leaders alike with a well-rounded, practical, and insightful guide to Christian ministry in honor-shame contexts, complete with apt stories, illuminating insights and ministry-tested wisdom.
