Anthropology and Mission: The Incarnational Connection
No full text Anthropology and Mission have had a long and stormy history to the present era. Nevertheless, anthropologists have used ethnographic data compiled by missionaries to develop their theoretical models. This article briefly traces this history and shows how applied anthropology emerged and impacted mission. Missionaries' use of anthropological insights is also explored, including discussion of the precursor to Missiology, the journal Practical Anthropology. The article concludes by drawing on the Incarnation as a model for mission and then arguing that there are biblical and theological reasons for developing a closer connection between anthropology and mission. In order to be more incarnational in cross-cultural ministry, we need to draw on the insights from anthropology. </jats:p
The Role of Ethnicity and Culture in Shaping Western Mission Agency Identity
No full text How do we live with our social identity and not deny who we are culturally, while at the same time recognize that our spiritual identity must take precedence over any cultural or ethnic allegiance? This is the challenge that missionaries and mission organizations face today. The issue before us is to understand how we can celebrate cultural diversity as an expression of God's creation in the body of Christ, without that diversity degenerating into ethnic rivalries within our mission organizations and our churches. This article explores the issues of identity and ethnicity as they relate to mission and the church, and makes four recommendations for a way forward through the ethnicity maze. </jats:p
