"The twelve chapters in this volume, which is the last in the Asian Diaspora Christianity series by Fortress Press, trace divergent ministries and theologies that developed in the context of diasporic Asians worldwide. To draw insights on Christian ministry from the diaspora, the three volumes in this series bring together scholars of Asian background and a few others situated in diverse locations all over the world. This series articulates the voices of Asian migrants and their descendants in order to weave together a kaleidoscopic intercultural theological tapestry. Within such a broad context, this volume examines the reflections of Asians in the diaspora with a special focus on mapping theologies and ministries"--page 4 of cover.
