Description
This book discusses present-day Southeast Asian Christian movements amid huge social and political changes in the region. Michael Poon, editor of the volume and director of the Centre for the Study of Christianity in Asia, notes there is a need "to deepen the understanding and expression of the theological nature of Christian movements in our lands, to encourage their growth, and help ensure that these newer expressions and practices are connected to the central calling of the whole church." Six prominent global and regional historians, missiologists and theologians join hands to evaluate the popular expressions of Southeast Asian Christianity, and to discuss their significance in relation to the emerging scholarship on world Christianity.
