{"product_id":"asian-christian-spirituality-reclaiming-traditions","title":"Asian Christian Spirituality: Reclaiming Traditions","description":"Asia is the birthplace of many great religions and spiritualities--spiritualities that draw wealth and meaning from the ancient past yet still address contemporary reality. Asian Christian Spirituality explores popular religious traditions in Korea, Hong Kong, Indonesia, the Philippines, Sri Lanka, and India, emphasizing how these traditions foster a liberative Christian spirituality.\nFrom the commercial bustle of Seoul and Hong Kong to the forests of Indonesia and the Philippines, culture and context are the two most important factors in searching for a liberating spirituality. As Samuel Rayan points out, Asian spirituality can be mined not only from traditional sources (such as shamanism, animism, and folk Catholicism) but also from the stories of women, peasants, and other victims of oppression and domination. Christianity in Asia must concern itself with the economic and political conditions that dehumanize people, and must create new patterns of relationships that make life worth living.\nAsian Christian Spirituality shows how a spirituality faithful to a common Christian heritage, simultaneously rooted in particular cultures and traditions, can animate Christianity in Asia, and help Asian Christians address contemporary problems.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 0883448009\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: GBV.0883448009.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Fabella, Virginia|Lee, Peter K.
