Shame & Honor: Presenting Biblical Themes in Shame and Honor Contexts

Most Christian theology is framed in terms of Guilt/Innocence which people from an individualistic Western context have an easy time relating to. However, the peoples in the 10/40 Window and those in the major world religions would hear the gospel more clearly if it was expressed and framed in terms of God taking our shame and giving us his honor.
From September 19-21, 2013 almost one hundred theologians, missiologists, and field practitioners gathered at Andrews University for a conference dealing with the challenge of presenting biblical theme in Honor/Shame contexts. This book shares the conference presentations with a larger audience.
