Ep. 68 - Seeds From the East: The Chinese Missional Impact

This episode is the 3rd one that we have done recently with diaspora immigrants to the West (2nd or 3rd generation) who have gone overseas as church-planters. We’ve had a Nigerian Brit, a South Asian from the USA and now a Canadian of Chinese heritage. Dr. M describes 10 benefits/blessings of being Chinese and working among Muslims. He highlights some of the challenges of working and ministering in ‘shame & honour’ cultures. And he describes how important it is to understand that Muslims come from very different political, cultural and theological contexts.If you would like to broaden your reading base, Dr. M recommends:1) Watchman Nee The Normal Christian Life or Sit, Walk, Stand or The Spiritual Man2) Wang Ming-Dao A Stone Made Smooth or A Call to the Church or Spiritual Food3) works by Philip Teng, John Sung or Thomas Wang... the latter of these three will have more available in English than the others.Also, to understand how to share the gospel in Honour-Shame contexts, check out The 3D Gospel by Jayson Georges and visit honorshame.comSend us a message!Support the show_________________________________________________________________________________Do get in touch if you have any questions for Matt or for any of his [email protected] can find out more about us by visiting www.frontiers.org.ukOr, if you're outside the UK, visit www.frontiers.org (then select from one of our national offices).
