N2  - "In Buddhist countries, Christianity has often been viewed as the religion of foreigners (with hidden political agendas). Sharing the gospel in non-imperialistic ways can be challenging, particularly in Asia. Every location to which God calls his messengers has its own shared history between gospel workers and the people. Therefore, those desiring to serve cross-culturally must learn as much as possible about the past before joining that history. Are we learning from the past, or are we simply repeating the same mistakes in our own times and places? No culture in the world is a blank slate; rather, we can look for the initiating, inviting work of the missio Dei already emerging from within every surprising source. This book showcases sixteen reflective practitioners who offer practical advice based on their study and experience of history. These women and men come from a wide variety of cultural and theological backgrounds. Their stories include: · An American who brought Protestant Buddhism to Sri Lanka · A Norwegian Lutheran who started a Christian monastic community in Hong Kong · A local scholar who led a faith movement in China that nearly overthrew the government · A Thai villager who became an evangelist and a silent-film star Highlighting key people and places, Emerging Faith surveys the history of Christian movements in Southeast Asia. Challenge your thinking and respond to God's invitation to participate in the global Buddhist context-look here for encouragement and guidance"  ~  Publisher
