Beschreibung

New Immigrants to the United States today are different from the earlier immigrants from Europe. They are mostly nonwesterners in culture and worldview. The book examines one of the new Immigrants'' group,"West Africans," and argues that unless the worldview of a people is clearly understood, sharing the gospel would always be problematic because the message being communicated may be coated in assumptions and worldview categories that are different from the recipients culture
