Culture of Shame / Culture of Guilt

Více o knize

The book explores the critical distinctions between guilt-oriented and shame-oriented cultures, emphasizing their implications for theology, missionary work, education, ethics, and counseling. It argues that the stark contrast between these cultural orientations is not fully aligned with Biblical teachings or Reformation traditions, which have historically incorporated aspects of shame. By highlighting these differences, the work challenges readers to reconsider their understanding of sin and reconciliation in the context of diverse cultural perspectives within Christianity.
