What Can Western Christians Learn from Churches in the Rest of the World?

Churches in the Majority World will forever owe an immense debt of love to Christians in the West, many of whom brought the gospel to them often at great cost. The relationship between Christianity in the West and that in the Majority World was largely one of teacher-and-pupil for a long time. But with the number of Christians in the Majority World now vastly outnumbering those in the West, mission, which used to be “from the West to the rest,” is now being reconfigured as “from everywhere to everywhere.” Thus the questions that must be asked include: Why is the church growing so rapidly in the Majority World?

What is God doing over there, and what can Western Christians learn from churches in the rest of the world? ELF Director Greg Pritchard writes about Hwa Yung's Workshop "What Can Western Christians Learn from Churches in the Rest of the World?: "If the European, indeed Western, Church is to understand itself, it needs to look in the mirror of the majority church's perspective. This talk is a rare opportunity to learn lessons from a senior global Gospel leader that we need to learn.""
