In the World Christian framework, what does the discipline of Learning involve?

• A. Learning means growing in understanding of God's great story working out in history.
• B. Learning means ignoring new information.
• C. Learning is optional and unneeded.
• D. Learning means only formal schooling.

Answer: (B)

Learning in the World Christian framework means growing in understanding of God's great story working out in history. It’s about seeing how Scripture, mission history, cultures, and worldviews fit together and how God’s redemptive plan has moved through different peoples and times. This kind learning isn’t just about memorizing facts; it involves listening to new information, reflecting biblically, and applying those insights to cross-cultural ministry. It’s an ongoing process that goes beyond formal schooling, and it rejects the idea of ignoring new information because growth comes from engaging with what God is doing in the world and adjusting practice accordingly.
