“If I have a missionary who comes to me and says, ‘I have no culture,’ I’m terrified of him because they’re going to think that the way they do things is the Christian way.”
Amen to that!
GREAT video.
“Most of the people who come to the reservation come for 2 reasons: they come to take our picture, or they come to give us charity. Very people come for the sake of getting to know us and build a relationship. And for those who do come for that, even less come back.”
Good stuff, and I definitely can imagine just as easily the same words being applicable to other ministries, especially out in the “mission field” with various ethnic groups…
