M Y N E W B O O K I S C O M I N G S O O N Rediscovering Japan, Reintroducing Christendom: 2000 Years of Christian History in Japan Professor Carl Raschke writes the following about Samuel Lee’s book Rediscovering Japan, Reintroducing Christendom: “Samuel Lee’s extensive book on the development, and theorized early history, of religion in Japan is one of the most exciting and provocative contributions to discussions of global Christianity that I have read in a long time.  For a long time, and especially since World War II, Japan has remained something of an enigma for missiologists and scholars of world Christianity.  But Lee’s work offers a fascinating, in-depth and detailed portrait through its religious history of a nation and a people that may not be so alien as Westerners in general, and Americans in particular, are prone to think.  Lee offers a thesis that is bound to stir controversy and, as he himself admits, tends to be dismissed as speculative by traditional Japanologists.  Yet his argument is compelling and extremely well-documented, and therefore clamors for attention.  Aside from urging us to consider the possibility that Japan may have been more Judeao-Christian, and by implication more “Western”, than we can imagine from its very beginnings, the book charts powerful new strategies for fostering a truly indigenous, growing, and globally significant community of Christ followers in a country that has already emerged as leading world economic power.  Rediscovering Japan, Reintroducing Christendom should be read by all scholars and lay professionals who want a truly cutting-edge perspective on what has come in recent years to be called “the next Christendom.” Carl Raschke Professor of Religious Studies, University of Denver Author, The Next Reformation and GloboChrist ESTIMATED RELEASE DATE: January 2010 or earlier ESTIMATED PAGES: approximately 200 Publisher : Hamilton Books / University Press of America PRE-ORDER THIS BOOK See here some related videos to my new book.

Samuel Lee ---------- AN ENCOURAGING EMAIL FROM A RJC ACADEMY-STUDENT I am writing to express my appreciation to you for the work you did in writing Understanding Japan Through the Eyes of Christian Faith.  I was one of the participants in RJC Academy's Japan 101 class.  Before I began the course, I had only a small understanding of Japan from things that I had read, heard, or experienced on my visits there.  My wife and I have been praying about opportunities to minister to Japanese students at the nearby university, but I had a strong sense that I was not properly equipped to specifically reach out to Japanese students.  I began praying about that God would show me how I could be equipped, and shortly thereafter, I found out about the Japan 101 class.   Reading your book was very enlightening in so many different aspects.  Being able to read a concise account of Japanese history, cultural condition, and spiritual condition gave me a good foundation in the equipping process that I have been seeking.  At times, certain elements of the content frustrated me, but upon completion of the book and processing all of those elements to see the "big picture," I realized how much I did not know and how much I had learned.  Looking back after completing the class, I can see how your work gave me a greater knowledge and understanding of Japan in the six short weeks of the class.  It is a very useful and solid foundation for a better understanding of my Japanese student friends and to build better, more meaningful relationships with them. Thank you so much again!  May God bless you in your ministry, and I look forward to any future books you might write about Japan. Kind regards, Jeff S.

I have always been a supporter of adopting Christianity to the cultures. If this is done carefully, it will be very effective in reaching Japan.

Read it here... RJC has very useful links and information about reaching the Japanese. I highly recommend you to participate in their Japan 101 Classes before you ever start doing mission work among the Japanese. ---------- AUSTRALIA Understanding Japan through the eyes of Christian Faith is also being used in various Australian mission organizations as tool for their missionaries in Japan. mailto:fu.edu@mac.com?subject=Rediscovering%20Japan%20Pre-ordermailto:fu.edu@mac.comhttp://www.rjcnetwork.orghttp://www.harvesttime.tv/English/TV/HiTVS/ch7/index.htmhttp://www.harvesttime.tv/English/TV/HiTVS/ch7/index.htmhttp://www.rjcnetwork.org/http://www.rjcnetwork.orghttp://www.rjcnetwork.orgshapeimage_2_link_0shapeimage_2_link_1shapeimage_2_link_2shapeimage_2_link_3shapeimage_2_link_4shapeimage_2_link_5shapeimage_2_link_6shapeimage_2_link_7
