Christianity in Culture: A Study in Dynamic Biblical Theologizing in Cross-Cultural Perspective



Charles H. Kraft's Christianity in Culture argues for a context-sensitive approach to Christian mission, emphasizing that Christianity must adapt its expression to different cultures (inculturation) rather than imposing Western forms, using anthropology to understand cultural 'hidden languages' for effective evangelism and contextual theology, challenging evangelicals to move beyond cultural bias for deeper biblical understanding and wider mission fruit. The book serves as a guide for Christians, especially missionaries, to de-Westernize Christianity's presentation, enabling it to resonate more deeply and authentically within diverse global cultures by understanding cultural frameworks and developing biblically faithful, culturally relevant expressions of faith.
