Excerpt from The Church of Christ in Japan: A Course of Lectures
The history of the Church of Christ in Japan since its first founding, now a little more than thirty years ago, is so crowded with material that I cannot attempt to do more than sketch an outline. So true is this, that I was half persuaded to say little or nothing regarding the general environment. But the environment is really a part of the story, the background neces sary to the picture. Therefore, though some of what I shall say this evening may be more or less familiar to you, I will ask you to hear it again.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a unique perspective on the founding and establishment of the Church of Christ in Japan beginning in 1872. Prior to this period, Japan had not been receptive to foreign influences including Christianity, despite some attempts to introduce it earlier in Japanese history. This text provides accounts of the slow and steady growth of this institution during the late 19th century, as well as the setbacks it experienced as anti-foreign sentiment rose. By exploring the unique challenges Christianity and missionaries faced in Japan, the author reveals insights into the nature of faith, culture, and the process of evangelism itself and how they remain relevant today.
