Presented by: Jim Cress, MA, LPC, CSAT, Ken Taylor, MSW, LCSW, CSAT, Eli Machen, MA, MSW, LCSW, Ted Baldick, PhD
This course is primarily designed to equip mission leaders, on any level, on how to deal with the full spectrum of compulsive sexual behavior that they encounter in their ministry.
The C-Spectrum has been used widely in mission circles and literature over the past fifteen years to differentiate various types of Christ-centered communities (biblical ekklesiae) found in the Muslim world.

By Harley Talman | The C-Spectrum introduced more than 20 years ago provided a tool to categorize different types of Christ-centered communities among Muslims. The Foreignness-Spectrum, or F-Spectrum, focuses on foreignness as the point of reference in appropriate contextualization. It gives needed correction to the C-Spectrum while also building on the C-Spectrum’s foundation.
While significant progress has been made in evangelical missiology on general contextualization, and much debate has swirled around the degree to which a Muslim-background believer can remain an “insider,” less attention has been placed on workers’ practices—and the connection to their view of Islam. Hence, in this article we seek to augment the overall dialogue by focusing on the worker.
It’s easy to get sentimental when writing about great missionaries of the past. Although Hudson Taylor was a product of Victorian perspectives, his life and ministry speak to a wide number of our concerns.
