| Summary, etc. |
Cross-cultural tentmaking is not a new concept in the arena of missions. In it, professionals carry out mission work in a cross-cultural setting, gaining access to their target country or context and earning their livelihood through the labour of their hands by a missions strategy. It has become potent and handy in a world where the numbers of career missionaries continue to ebb, as many are denied access into several creative access countries (countries that are not open to the Gospel). Added to the challenge of access denial is the dwindling nature of the world’s economy, particularly in developing countries. The Evangelical Church Winning All (ECWA), birthed by SIM, a mission organization founded in 1893 through the daring effort of three young men: Rowland Bingham, Thomas Kent, and Walter Gowans, changed its name in 2010 to reflect its quest to engage the nations of the world in missions. Although as the Evangelical Church Winning All it has one of the largest missions arms in Nigeria, it is not able to realize effectively its stated quest primarily due to its current missionary workforce, which was not originally intended to attend to such a global ministry scope. This research identifies lay professional Nigerian Christian youth as the ideal workforce to help ECWA realize its objective of reaching the world with the Gospel. It is concluded that this can be accomplished through cross-cultural tentmaking. This study prescribes a strategy which is rooted biblically and theologically, using the Apostle Paul as a model. Following the LIM research methodology, it also borrows from the social sciences where ethnography helps define culture and human behaviour, providing cross-cultural inroads for the viii Gospel. In the end, the cross-cultural tentmaking mission strategy for ECWA is about IDENTIFYING, EQUIPPING, and ENGAGING its youth for the task of winning the nations of the world for Christ. |
