God's
Story: From Creation to Eternity - (videos of the Bible in chronological
order and in storytelling approach - in growing numbers of languages for you
to purchase and give to your unsaved friends). This approach, however, seems
to also include exegesis along the way, whereas the true CBS approach allows
the listener to discover the truth for themselves as they listen to the stories
without exegesis included - editor's note.

IGUASSU AFFIRMATION: Global Consultation
on Evangelical Missiology
"…Gospel and Culture
The Gospel is always presented and received within a cultural context. It is
therefore essential to clarify the relationship between Gospel and Culture,
both in theory and practice, recognizing that there is both good and evil in
all cultures. We commit ourselves to continue to demonstrate the relevance of
the Christian message to all cultures, and ensure that missionaries learn to
wrestle biblically with the relationship between Gospel and culture. We commit
ourselves to serious study of how different cultural perspectives may enrich
our understanding of the Gospel as well as how all worldviews have to be critiqued
and transformed by it…"
