Missions from the Majority World: Progress, Challenges, and Case Studies
The churches from the whole world are joined in the effort to reach the whole world. Although it has been documented that Western missionaries serving outside their countries still comprise the majority of world missions workers, the growth rate of majority world missionaries far outpaces that of the West. In recent years, while Western missionary forces are shrinking in numbers and possibly in influence, missions from the majority world have proliferated, bringing amazing progress and some challenges. Missions from the Majority World represents the thinking of 14 majority world mission scholars and 10 Westerners with lengthy experience in the missionary enterprise. The book shows the progress and challenges of missions from the majority world and illustrates this by case studies from Asia, Africa, and Latin America.

Stories are from the majority world, but writers are mostly living in the US or had an US education. I found chapter 5, about South Korea and chapter 10, about Latin America, the most interesting ones.

A lot of really thought provoking stuff in this volume of the Evangelical Missiological Society Series. There are seventeen articles written be various researchers, missionaries, etc. from various parts of the globe. As such, this book has some editorial problems (split paragraphs, poor grammar, misspellings, etc) but the contend overcomes these difficulties. The overall topic of the book is looking at what countries from the Majority World are doing in the way of missions.
