  Globalization and postmodernity are changing the world that we live in. Increasing choice and diversity are primary features of these trends. Like a child at a candy counter, we can now mix and match the food we eat, clothes we wear, films we watch, and games we play. In this new world of difference, what is local is also international, and with this increase in options comes the power to affect others elsewhere.How should Christians view our everexpanding options? What are the implications for the mission of the Church both locally and worldwide? How will individuals, churches, and Christian organizations need to respond if they are to have an impact in this diversifying world?World of Difference analyzes contemporary culture from a Christian perspective and offers models and structures for the future shape and practice of mission in the 21st century.
