Description / Abstract
How does the Church of the Nazarene operate in such a place as West Africa? How does the Church avoid doing too much and create dependencies without doing too little and missing opportunities to spread the Gospel? How does the message of “full salvation” (scriptural holiness) relate to the concern to bring the “whole Gospel” to the “whole world”? I sometimes think about these questions. You may have struggled over the same issues. This past summer I was asked to write on the subject of holistic mission represented by bleeding hearts and managerial missiology represented by the bean counters. In this paper, I review the literature related to the debates and respond to the dilemmas of the contemporary missionary task from my experience of living and working in developing countries. I will also identify peripheral issues that need further exploration.
