Empowering transformation : [manuscript] : transferable principles for intercultural planting of spiritually healthy churches based on two decades of involvement in rural and remote urban China / / by Vee J. D-Davidson. Regnum Books International, ; UK.:, c2018. xiv, 247 p ; 23 cm. Regnum Studies in Mission ; Includes bibliographical references (pages 231-239) and index. The book brings out principles related to intercultural missions, church-planting and training of local believers. They include aspects of missions praxis which challenge, modify, and/or supplement material in classic and current textbooks. The principles, which centre around affirmation of dignity and empowerment of local people to bring about transformation, are re-workable in multiple settings including those resistant to the Gospel particularly in restricted contexts or amongst unreached peoples where deep-rooted religious systems prevail and hostility to the Gospel is prevalent.
