Contextualization and Ancestor Worship

Dr. Ed Stetzer put a great little video up on his blog and I wanted to share it as well. In this video Robert Young discusses the challenges of contextualization in the context of ancestor worship.

It’s funny that he points out that his Christian family has chosen to clean the graves and instead of offering  incense simply pray at the grave site, but notice that people misunderstood what they were doing.

Does this mean that we shouldn’t do anything until we know how people will respond to what we are doing?
