Missionary Preparation: Confronting the Presuppositional Barrier

Excellent training is now available in linguistic skills, psychological sensitivity and cultural awareness.

He also suggests that in turning to the Bible for help in this matter, we will find ourselves working at an additional depth level which he calls the pan-human level of human experience.
