"The need for inculturation in contemporary society is becoming increasingly urgent. Mainstream churches, dangerously inward-looking, have now recognized the need to look out at the people they live among in the Decade of Evangelism. In order to evangelize successfully we must understand how the values underlying contemporary culture and those underpinning the Gospel differ; we must test the fundamental assumptions of society by the yardstick of the Gospel, and the Gospel we preach by its relevance to that society."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
