Book Description
This book is intended to honor Rev. Everett and Rev. Evelyn McKinney, who have served as Assemblies of God missionaries for 50 years, mainly in the Asia Pacific region, but also in Pacific Oceana and Europe. Because most of their career has been involved in training workers in Bible schools and seminaries, most of the articles here deal with the wide spectrum of theological education, beginning with the responsibility of parents to raise their children to know the Lord and ending with two articles on graduate and post-graduate ministerial preparation and theological education.

For All Peoples
Author: Craig S. Keener
Publisher: Wipf and Stock Publishers
ISBN: 1725286122
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 123
Book Description
Given this unique locus of today's church, this book takes us back to the foundational teachings of Jesus on missions: the Great Commission (Gospel of Matthew) and the Messianic Commission (Gospel of John). Although these two passages are universal in grounding Christian mission, Professor Keener wants to assure that the role of the Holy Spirit is central to Christian living and acting as God's witnesses. Wonsuk Ma, PhD Dean, Distinguished Professor of Global Christianity College of Theology and Ministry, Oral Roberts University Craig Keener, one of the finest and most prolific NT scholars of our day, has produced another gem. For All Peoples: A Biblical Theology of Missions in the Gospels and Acts blends together rich scholarly insights, rooted in an unsurpassed knowledge of the first-century world, with an edifying and pastoral eye that is always focused on the radical nature of Jesus' call to follow him in his redemptive mission. Successive chapters illuminate the seminal contributions that Matthew, Luke, John, and Paul make to a biblical theology of missions. The final chapter, rooted in the narrative of Acts, appropriately ties together these themes by describing Paul's Macedonian vision as a call for the Church to take the gospel from its place of origin in Asia to the mission field of Europe. After almost two millennia, Keener reminds us just how relevant this call remains for the growing and vibrant churches of Asia today. Robert P. Menzies, PhD Kunming, China This is Craig Keener at his best--thoroughly expositional and passionately missional. Dave Johnson, DMiss Managing Editor Asian Journal of Pentecostal Studies

Asian Masculinities
Author: Kam Louie
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 113442759X
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 304
Book Description
This book shows how East Asian masculinities are being formed and transformed as Asia is increasingly globalized. The gender roles performed by Chinese and Japanese men are examined not just as they are lived in Asia, but also in the West. The essays collected here enhance current understandings of East Asian identities and cultures as well as Western conceptions of gender and sexuality. While basic issues such as masculine ideals in China and Japan are examined, the book also addresses issues including homosexuality, women's perceptions of men, the role of sport and food and Asian men in the Chinese diaspora.

The Dynamics of Asian Labour Markets
Author: John Benson
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1136823905
Category : Business & Economics
Languages : en
Pages : 309
Book Description
Asia has undergone rapid economic transformation over the past two decades. Despite its constant economic growth, the 1997-98 Asian financial crisis and the resulting surge in unemployment highlighted the vulnerability of national systems that base development solely on economic growth. This book fills a major research gap by exploring the nature, dynamics and functioning of Asian labour markets in eight major Asian economies, including Japan, South Korea, Hong Kong, Singapore, China, Vietnam, India and Malaysia. It examines the type of labour markets that exist in Asia; how they have responded to globalisation; and how flexible they are to changing social and economic conditions. The book analyses how the current transformation has impacted on the key parties, such as employers, employees, trade unions, governments, organisations and society as a whole, and considers the likely future trends and developments in Asian labour markets.

Asian Urbanization
Author: D. J. Dwyer
Publisher: Hong Kong University Press
ISBN: 9780856560040
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
Asian Urbanization surveys the most significant facets of Hong Kong's remarkable urban development during the last twenty-five years. Some of the contributions, by authors from both the University of Hong Kong and the Hong Kong Government, were originally given at a series of seminars on problems of urbanization held in the Centre of Asian Studies of the University of Hong Kong. In this up-to-date form they provide a comprehensive survey of the problems of physical planning in Hong Kong and, on a comparative basis, in Asia and elsewhere. The wide scope of the book includes studies of the massive housing programmes for the resettlement of squatters which have attracted such international attention; the legal background to urban growth; urban renewal; the transport pattern and recent proposals for an undergroundmass-transport rail system, small-scale industrial units, and the creation of new towns- all extensively illustrated with detailed plates, maps and diagrams. Hong Kong's pattern of urban development is perhaps the most dynamic in the Third World and this assessment, which may in parts prove to be controversial, should be read by all those concerned with the planning of the rapidly expanding cities of developing countries and by students of comparative urbanization everywhere.
