Short-Term Mission

Více o knize

Examining the rise of short-term mission trips, this book delves into their impact on participants and the broader church. It highlights common experiences, such as personal transformation and a newfound awareness of global needs. Through an anthropological lens, the author investigates the unique narrative formed by these trips, combining elements of tourism, pilgrimage, and Christian mission. An ethnographic study of a specific trip to the Dominican Republic further reveals how these experiences shape perceptions of poverty and global church relations among North American Christians.
