Summary

The growth and dynamism of non-Western mission in the twenty-first century typified by cutting-edge Korean missions, frequently results in situations unanticipated by existing policies and procedures. The case studies and responses in this book, prepared by many of today's leading Korean and Western mission administrators, identify and tackle the resulting challenges head on. Book jacket.
