Summary: Duane Elmer asked people around the world how they felt about Western missionaries. The response? `Missionaries could be more effective if they did not think they were better than us.` The last thing we want to do in cross-cultural ministry is to offend people in other cultures. Unfortunately, all too often and even though we don't mean it, our actions communicate superiority, paternalism, imperialism and arrogance.
