A History of Christianity in Asia, Vol. II
Author: Samuel Hugh Moffett
Publisher: Orbis Books
ISBN: 1608331636
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 702
Book Description
The story of Christianity in the West has often been told, but the history of Christianity in the East is not as well known. The seed was the same: the good news of Jesus Christ for the whole world, which Christians call "the gospel." But it was sown by different sowers; it was planted in different soil; it grew with a different flavor; and it was gathered by different reapers. It is too often forgotten that the faith moved east across Asia as early as it moved west into Europe. Western church history tends to follow Paul to Philippi and to Rome and on across Europe to the conversion of Constantine and the barbarians. With some outstanding exceptions, only intermittently has the West looked beyond Constantinople as its center. It was a Christianity that has for centuries remained unashamedly Asian. A History of Christianity in Asia makes available immense amounts of research on religious pluralism of Asia and how Christianity spread long before the modern missionary movement went forth in the shelter of Western military might. Invaluable for historians of Asia and scholars of mission, it is stimulating for all readers interested in Christian history. --

Xinjiang
Author: Paul Hattaway
Publisher: William Carey Publishing
ISBN: 1645084396
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 263
Book Description
God’s Mighty Acts in China In The China Chronicles, Paul Hattaway draws on more than thirty years’ experience in China and numerous interviews with church leaders to provide insight into how the Living God brought about the largest revival in the history of Christianity. Xinjiang, a vast region in northwest China, has been much in the news in recent years because of the plight of more than one million Muslim Uyghur people there. But Xinjiang also has a long Christian history. Today there are nearly one million believers, mostly among the Han Chinese, who have migrated into the region in recent decades. In this book, the sixth in the series, Hattaway focuses on the heroic efforts to reach the Uyghurs and other Muslim groups who remain largely untouched by the gospel. The China Chronicles Series: Book 1: Shandong Book 2: Guizhou Book 3: Zhejang Book 4: Tibet Book 5: Henan Book 6: Xinjiang
