Christianity Made in Japan, taking a look at Mark Mullins' classic book (1/2)
<p>What makes a Christian movement indigenous? Today I look at the first three indigenous movements detailed by Mark Mullins, the Non-Church Movement (Uchimura), The Way (Matsumura), and Christ Heart Church (Kawai). Older movements that mixed Bushido, Confucianism, Self-Cultivation, and a respect for Buddhism with Christianity. Can modern Christians learn anything from these groups about reaching Japanese while staying faithful to the Gospel? Are the principles of venerating pre-Christian traditions incompatible with Christianity? Is it different when Japaense thinkers revere pre-Christian voices compared to when church fathers revered Greek philosophers as pre-Christian voices? Later movements to be discussed in a future episode.</p>
