This volume of essays, the first in a new 'Christianity in Asia Series', from the Trinity Theological College, Singapore, marks a fresh approach to articulate the character of Christian social engagement in East Asia today. Key institutional interpreters of Christianity in China and Singapore, together with colleagues in the West, reflect on a topic that is important and relevant not only to the church, but is also of considerable interest to the secular authorities and those of other faiths.
Singapore and China, in spite of their obvious dissimilarities, share a similar desire to make religion a positive factor in promoting the common good. Hard-earned social stability, after all, can be undermined by ethnic and religious conflicts. Hence, the ongoing political and social engagement by Chinese and Singaporean Christians should be of immense interest to both academics and practitioners.
Contributors: Bishop Paul Barnett, Rev Dr Cao Shengie, Bishop John Chew, Bishop Hwa Yung, Rev. Dr. Daniel Koh, Lim Siong Guan, Richard Magnus, Oliver O'Donovan, Rev. Dr. Michael Nai-Chiu Poon, Bishop Robert Solomon, Tan Kim Huat, Dr. Bruce Winter, Ye Xiaowen and Zhuo Xinping
