But the theological inflections at its heart are not well understood by outsiders. The published voices of elite academic theologians have drowned out the cadences of Christian faith as it is spoken, lived and prayed in the homes and churches of Tokyo or Shanghai or Madras. Now, in \u003ci\u003eGrassroots Asian Theology,\u003c\/i\u003e Simon Chan examines Asian Christianity at its daily, sustaining level. There he uncovers a vibrant theology thatis authentically Asian and truly engaging. More than a mere survey, \u003ci\u003eGrassroots Asian Theology\u003c\/i\u003e makes a serious and constructive contribution to Asian theology. Organizing his discussion under leading themes of Christian theology, Chan looksat how Christians have grappled with their living faith in the context of Asian cultures and societies. Then, drawing on the church's broader tradition, he points the way forward. Chan not only probes and informs, he leads and challenges readers across cultures to receive, live and communicate an authentic Christian faith. This is a significant book for both outsiders and insiders to Asian Christianity, as well as those interested in the broader horizons of global theology. Chan reminds us thatauthentic theologies are grounded in particular peoples, places and cultures.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":49753024790801,"sku":"NGR9780830840489","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50169787973905,"sku":"CIN0830840486G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":50984664400145,"sku":"NIN9780830840489","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51830181003537,"sku":"CIN0830840486VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52126067425553,"sku":"NLS9780830840489","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":53613592510737,"sku":"GOR014981349","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0830840486.jpg?v=1754250710"},{"product_id":"liturgical-theology-the-church-as-worshiping-community-book-simon-chan-9780830827633","title":"Liturgical Theology  The Church as Worshiping Community","description":"\u003cp\u003eBad worship produces bad theology, and bad theology produces an unhealthy church.In \u003ci\u003eLiturgical Theology,\u003c\/i\u003e Simon Chan issues a call to evangelicals to develop a mature theology of the church--an ecclesiology that is grounded in the church'sidentity as a worshiping community. Evangelicals, he argues, are confused about the meaning and purpose of the church in part because they have an inadequate understanding of Christian worship. As a remedy for this ailment, Chan presents a coherenttheology of the church that pays particular attention to the liturgical practices that have constituted Christian worship throughout the centuries. With a seasoned eye and steady hand, he guides the reader through these practices and unpacks their significance for theology, spirituality and the renewal of evangelicalism in the postmodern era.Chan's proposal advances the conversation among evangelicals regarding the relationship between theology and worship. In contrast to some theologians who have tended to emphasize a sociological analysis, Chan argues that we need to consider what is essential to the church's theological identity. Drawing on the larger Christian tradition, Chan argues that we discover that identity primarily in the structure and significance of Christian worship.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":49993434169617,"sku":"CIN0830827633G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":50163710198033,"sku":"NGR9780830827633","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50175811453201,"sku":"GOR006887105","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":50984643494161,"sku":"NIN9780830827633","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52139968594193,"sku":"NLS9780830827633","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0830827633.jpg?v=1754489836"},{"product_id":"pentecostal-theology-and-the-christian-spiritual-tradition-book-simon-chan-9781610970846","title":"Pentecostal Theology and the Christian Spiritual Tradition","description":"This book deals with the problem of Pentecostal 'traditioning'. Traditioning has been ineffective thus far because the richness of Pentecostal faith and experience has been inadequately captured in the classical Pentecostal doctrines of Spirit-baptism and glossolalia. A more adequate understanding of the key theological symbol of Pentecostalism, glossolalia, emerges when it is interpreted in the light of Christian spiritual tradition. Within this larger tradition glossolalia can be seen as bringing together both the ascetical and contemplative dimensions of the Christian life. Chan thus explores the shape of Pentecostal ecclesiology as 'traditioning community'.
