About this title: In the past, changes in behavior and in belief have been leading indicators for missionaries that Christian conversion had occurred. But these alone--or even together--are insufficient for a gospel understanding of conversion. For effective biblical mission, Paul G. Hiebert argues, we must add a third element: a change in worldview. Here he offers a comprehensive study of worldview--its philosophy, its history, its characteristics, and the means for understanding it.

The book lays a premise at the beginning and then dives into a thorough discussion of the details. Primarily he explains an overview of world views and what develops/influences them. His details look at this in light of missological concerns.
It closes with a look at what is necessary to transform and change a world view. This is at the heartbeat of all evangelism and discipleship.
I found the beginning and end of this book to be invaluable and highly recommend it until something simpler comes along! The book is very academic but I haven't found anyone else teaching this at a lower/practical level. It is an excellent resource."
