Winter, Ralph As I See It: Looking at '87 and to the Year 2000

My thesis is that 1986 in this century will soon clearly compare to the year 1886. One hundred years ago that year (not realized at the time) was the threshold to the greatest explosion in Christian world outreach that had ever occurred in history up to that time.

Winter, Ralph Bridges and Peoples

This is no time to get these two confused: both are essential to mission strategy. We must know the difference.


Winter, Ralph I will Do a New Thing - When Truth is Stranger Than Fiction

Eight years ago, in June of 1979, my first book. Once More Around Jericho, came off the press. It was the story of the early months of the founding of the U.S. Center for World Mission.

Mission Frontiers, Jun1987

Winter, Ralph “The New Thing” and the Old Thing

As you test the pace and spice of Roberta Winter's chapter, “I Will Do A New Thing” on page 5 and following, you enter into an almost completely different world of thought and action from that of the present day International Review of Mission. Why the divergence?

The future of the world hinges on what we make of this word “mission.” Yet at this moment it is almost universally misunderstood - in both liberal and conservative circles.

Winter, Ralph What is World Evangelization and is it Possible to Achieve?

Many organizations are already "taking aim on the year 2000." Usually their goals are phrased in terms of the particular type of work they do.

Winter, Ralph More and More People These Days Are Looking For A New Age

Maybe we're too sophisticated. Too rational. Too embarrassed. Whatever the reason, we in the church do little talking about the end of the age.


Winter, Ralph It's Happening: More and More People are Caught Up in the "Generic," Overall Cause of Missions

Go-it-alone Christianity has been around for a long time. But the Bible knows nothing favorable about a Christianity which is sealed off from other parts of the body of Christ.

Winter, Ralph China's Intrigue

Not many people realize the surprising extent to which China's ruling elite can reach across the Pacific to control things in this country.

Winter, Ralph In Hudson Taylor's Day....

In Hudson Taylor's day they eagerly looked forward to the completion of the Great Commission and the Return of Christ. Today, while there are almost four times as many people to be won to Christ, there are forty times as many believers to do the job, and better transportation, language analysis, medical insight, relative wealth ...by far.

Winter, Ralph Why is the China Inland Mission/North America's 100th Year Celebration So Significant For Us Today?

More than any other human being, James Hudson Taylor, that young upstart, who did not heed his station in the social order, made the greatest contribution to the cause of world mission in the 19th century.

Winter, Ralph 1. Is the Mission Field "Overseas"? 2. Are Lay Tentmakers the Manpower Answer?

Winter, Ralph Seeing the Big Picture Part I

Winter, Ralph A Mission Perspective on the American Euphoria over Eastern Europe

It is all too easy for Evangelical believers to be caught up in the euphoria of other Americans gazing with uncritical eyes at what is happening in eastern Europe.

Dr. Winter argues for a change in our thinking about how we can communicate the Gospel and for us to look to new ways that have much greater potential than the methods we are currently employing.

Winter, Ralph The Bible, Reformation and Modern Missions

Dr Winter helps us look at the basics of evangelical beliefs and how they relate to the communication of the Gospel across cultural barriers.

Winter, Ralph Four Men, Three Eras

1998


Winter, Ralph The Meaning of Mission

The future of the world hinges on what we make of this word “mission.” Yet at this moment it is almost universally misunderstood—in both liberal and conservative circles.

Winter, Ralph The Six Spheres of Mission Overseas

Introduction; Sphere 1 Standard Missions; Sphere 2 Service Missions; Sphere 3 Relief and Development Missions; Sphere 4 Indigenous Missions; Sphere 5 Short Term Missions; Sphere 6 Congregational Direct Missions

This is a landmark examination of the basic categories of mission work around the world. Probably nowhere else can you get in one place a better understanding of the strengths and weaknesses of each type of work and how they relate to each other. This is a must read for anyone who wants to understand what is happening in misson work today.

Mission Frontiers, Sept-Dec 1998

Winter, Ralph Horizon Five: DeWesternization/DeContextualization / DeWesternization Tomorrow; Are we really ready for tomorrow's Kingdom?

As we take the Gospel to new cultures, can we separate our faith from our culture? As Biblical faith penetrates these cultures are we as Evangelical Christians prepared for the strange cultural forms the Gospel may take?

Winter, Ralph Horizon Seven: Microscopic Spiritual Warfare Massive Blind Spot?

Are you and I culturally blind to certain realms of Satan's deadly activity? Take the realm of tiny microbes. Are Evangelicals duped into considering plagues merely a secular or scientific problem, not a Satanic problem, not a mission problem?

1999


Winter, Ralph and Bruce A. Koch Finishing the Task: The Unreached Peoples Challenge

Mission Frontiers, Sep-Dec 1999

Now you can take college with you--wherever.


Winter, Ralph The Dangers of “Prayer Wheel” Worship

Worship must not be centered in what we want or seek but upon Who He is and the blessed, loving marvel that He is. Prayer wheels and verbal mantras are centered on what we want.

Mission Frontiers, Sept 2001

Winter, Ralph Strategic Giving: Good Intentions Are Not Always Good Enough

Much of what is most needed in missions will not seem attractive to the donor at first glance. The most strategic works do not lend themselves to easy fundraising.

Curiously, while many professions require special training and insight and have large meetings of their practitioners from time to time to compare notes and share knowledge, the role of a cross-cultural mission agency, has not often merited that kind of meeting on the global level.
