As part of the seminar I am leading tomorrow, I am making available this free resource. It’s an 8.5 x 11-inch document in black and white that can be easily reproduced and shared. This little resource is a reflection of what I have learned about the pivotal cultural value of honor and shame in the Bible. It also reflects what I do when I read the Bible to reveal the honor/shame dynamics present in the text.
The resource features:
- Primary honor/shame dynamics in the Bible
- How to read the Bible through the lens of honor and shame
- Recognizing the broad spectrum of words related to honor and shame
- Basic cross-cultural ministry skills related to honor and shame
Benefits:
- Easily reproducible, print it out in black and white
- Graphically rich, easy to read
- Easy to share—cut it in half and give one to a friend, or send it as an email attachment
- Convenient size, fits in your average-size Bible for quick reference
