WHEN YOU CROSS CULTURES - World Evangelical Alliance

I wholeheartedly commend this book not merely to missionaries and
missionaries-to-be but also to any Christian wanting to better understand the
challenges and blessings of cross-cultural ministry.”

“If you are a person that takes God’s call to the nations seriously, you
need this book. It is the most comprehensive treatment of the task I have ever
seen in one volume. After you read it, you will want to keep it in your library as
a reference.
Jim Chew and I have been friends for many years. I have always known
him to be a serious student of the Scriptures, of modern missions and of the
progress of the gospel into the cultures of the world. Multi-cultured himself,
Jim has had personal experience with everything he writes about on these pages.
You are holding a lifetime of wisdom in your hands”.

“When you Cross Cultures provides a significant contribution for
‘missionary preparation’ – offering a vital Asian perspective to issues of culture,
contextualisation and cross-cultural stresses. Jim Chew lived out this book out
of almost five decades of a mentoring ministry among cross-cultural workers.
Thorough and well researched, this revised study should be a required reading
for students and a companion for new workers interested in reflecting biblically
and missiologically on a whole range of cross-cultural issues. An excellent and
practical resource for mission training!”.
