After Imperialism ─ Christian Identity in China and the Global Evangelical Movement

In May 2008, Chinese and Western evangelical scholars gathered in Hong Kong to address issues of Christian and evangelical identity using a balance of social science and biblical inquiry. The 12 papers from that gathering include discussions of missions, cultural imperialism, and the development of the Chinese church; Robert Morrison, Liang Fa, and the Opium Wars; reading the Old Testament holy war texts in a biblical-theological and postcolonial setting, Paul's witness on the group and the individual in salvation; theology and identity for children of the dragon; and integrating models of theological education in the global context.
