Modern mission theory is guided largely by the quot;three self paradigmquot; that suggests indigenous churches can only be healthy if they are quot;selfgoverning selfpropagating and selfsupporting.quot; Consequently Western missionaries their churches and their agencies have been increasingly indisposed to giving generously.nbsp;We must rethink the interplay of dollars dependency and what it means to quot;do the right thingquot; with our money as we pursue twentyfirst century missions.nbsp; This book answers the questions whether Westerners ought quot;to give or not to givequot; in support of global evangelism and encourages maximum generosity as the path most reflective of God's heart on the matter.
