One of the most significant concepts to impact the modern mission movement is the importance of "Honor and Shame". Instead of the primary focus of cultures in the unreached world being "Guilt and Justice"; "Honor and Shame" is the operating system for all social interaction. How does this change the way that we talk about "Sin" with peoples from non-western worldviews? How might this effect the way that we present the Gospel message to these people? All of these questions are being asked by workers around the world who are working among the Unreached Peoples who see the idea of sin as being linked to the loss of honor and the creation of Shame. In this episode of God Network News Dr. Mischke explores the biblical and missiological implications of this concept.As our gift to you our GNN listeners, here is a free pdf copy of Dr. Werner Mischke's book, "Honor and Shame in Cross-Cultural Relationships".https://www.dropbox.com/s/a0rj3p325rwiaua/honor-and-shame-Epi%2379.pdf?dl=0For many of you this may be the first

Cal Kohnke of Create International speaking at the US Center for World Mission shares several stories of what God is doing in Asia. He explains how they go about producing indigenous gospel films in the heart language of the people groups using actors and important elements of the culture. The results they have seen in the first several years of their efforts in Asia is very encouraging. A number of unreached people have come to Christ even before the films have been fully completed and released to the missionaries work in the area. They are beginning to see initial movements to Christ among some of the most devout Muslim groups in Indonesia and other parts of Asia.

Ralph Winter (December 8, 1924 – Wed., May 20, 2009) was an American missiologist and Presbyterian missionary who helped pioneer Theological Education by Extension, raised the debate about the role of the church and mission structures and became well known as the advocate for pioneer outreach among unreached people groups. He was the founder of the U.S. Center for World Mission (USCWM), William Carey International University, and the International Society for Frontier Missiology.[1]His 1974 presentation at the Congress for World Evangelization in Lausanne, Switzerland - an event organized by American evangelist Billy Graham - was a watershed moment for global mission.[2]It was during this presentation that Winter shifted global mission strategy from a focus on political boundaries to a focus on distinct people groups. Winter argued that instead of targeting countries, mission agencies needed to target the thousands of people groups worldwide, over half of which have not been reached with the gospel message.Bi
