The Lausanne Standards – A Narrative Foundation

The role of money in international missions had been an issue in the global church for many years. The Lausanne Committee for World Evangelization published the Lausanne Standards (http://www.lausannestandards.org/) as a set of values and principles to guide donors and recipients through the minefield of international funding. In this story set, Ruedi and Jenny Giezendanner illustrate these values and principles with six biblical narratives.
These stories reflect the primary values underlying the Lausanne Standards includin integrity, trust, respect, giftedness, interdependence, stewardship and accountability, vision, communication, cultural sensitivity, and flexibility.
