Roots and Remedies of the Dependency Syndrome in World Missions

Viac o knihe

The book explores the Dependency Syndrome that hampers collaboration between Western and non-Western churches in the Christian movement. Author Robert Reese, drawing from his extensive experience in Zimbabwe, examines the historical roots of this dependency, often stemming from colonial mission practices. He discusses the negative impact of foreign reliance on local churches and offers remedies based on effective mission models from early Christianity. The goal is to foster productive cooperation within the global Body of Christ while avoiding dependency, especially in today's globalized context.
