The Asianization of Christianity

<p>Christianity has long been associated with the West often creating a disjunction affecting the understanding of the essence of the gospel. <i>The Asianization of Christianity</i> is a clarion call by Asian Christian leaders for the gospel to be indigenized by encouraging practitioners to seriously engage with both the Bible and the cultures of Asia. The book demonstrates that both the theology and the presentation of the gospel need to be framed according to the mindset of the respective Asian cultures so that the message of the Bible can be understood and accepted. Case studies on evangelism church and training models from several Asian nations are explored. Core issues such as culture communication and contextualization underpin the practical cases to give depth and clarity for the effective communication of the gospel.</p>
