Author: Zehner, Edwin
Description: Chapter from the book "Power and identity in the Global Church" using material from the study of Thai Christians and Thai Bhuddist conversions to Christianity in light of the apostle Paul's missiological and theological struggles in his own context, to suggest some of the difficulties in distinguishing between contextualization and syncretism and to argue that missionaries need to avoid being overly directive in the attempt to shape the contextualization of local churches.
