Despite the significance of Korea in world Christianity and the crucial role Christianity plays in contemporary Korean religious life, the tradition has been little studied in the West. Christianity in Korea seeks to fill this lacuna by providing a wide-ranging overview of the growth and development of Korean Christianity and the implications that development has had for Korean politics, interreligious dialogue, and gender and social issues. The volume begins with an accessibly written overview that traces in broad outline the history and development of Christianity on the peninsula. This is followed by chapters on broad themes, such as the survival of early Korean Catholics in a Neo-Confucian society, relations between Christian churches and colonial authorities during the Japanese occupation, premillennialism, and the theological significance of the division and prospective reunification of Korea. Others look in more detail at individuals and movements, including the story of the female martyr Kollumba Kang Wansuk; the influence of Presbyterianism on the renowned nationalist Ahn Changho; the sociopolitical and theological background of the Minjung Protestant Movement; and the success and challenges of Evangelical Protestantism in Korea. The book concludes with a discussion of how best to encourage a rapprochement between Buddhism and Christianity in Korea.
A commemorative look at 50 years of Dr. Cho¿s min-istry of hope, released in time for his retirement this summer. Over the years, as he struggled to bring hope to people and build his church, God taught Dr. Cho not to depend upon himself but totally upon the Holy Spirit. In this book Dr. Cho tells the stories of his temptations and doubts, failures and successes, and how the Holy Spirit was with him in every situa-tion. The teaching in this book will inspire the reader to stand strong in the face of adversity, doubt, and fear. Followers worldwide will add this highly antici-pated autobiography to their collection of Dr. Cho¿s coveted works.
Excerpt from The Church of Christ in Corea The apostles whose acts are here related are all Coreans; where the white men had failed, the native pastors met with unbounded success. With fine simplicity and tenderness, Mr. Fen wick sketches their characters and tells of their devotion.

Not illustrated. 1911 edition. Excerpt: ... EPILOGUE After this book was completed some friends insisted so strongly on the inclusion of an address delivered in America, dealing with the application of the secret of the success of evangelism in Corea to the conduct of the home church, that it is here appended. The first great secret of the splendid results of the Corean evangelists' testimony is the Spirit of sacrifice with which they are endured. It is a great thing which comes to the student of spiritual psychology, as he first learns that when a son of the first Adam is reborn into the second Adam, and the Holy Spirit hitherto working unto conviction of sin from without "the old man," takes up His abode within " the new man," he adds nothing to the faculties of " the old man," -- He only makes possible one hundred per cent values of those faculties as fast as " the new man" yields to His wooing and teaching, in pliable willingness. 'T is good, too, to note just here, in passing, that, entirely outside of and apart from His man, the Holy Spirit works in wondrous ways for the encouragement and joy of His yielded subject who has only the limited faculties, -- who, ofttimes, stands still, in adoring wonder, to see the salvation of God. But when He is making use of men and women in GOD'S service, He works through their varied personalities and characteristics and powers -- in short, through the entire natural equipment, in so far as it is yielded to Him. The great outstanding characteristics of the Corean are patience and humility. These are the splendid traits which have brought the nation all its political trouble. Generosity is another prominent quality. Patience! Humility! Generosity! It is easy to see what the Spirit of GOD can do with such a natural and rich vein of precious...
This is a fascinating exploration of the mystery that surrounds of Ruben's most well-known and intriguing drawings. Peter Paul Rubens was one of the most talented and successful artists working in 17th-century Europe. During his illustrious career as a court painter and diplomat, Rubens expressed a fascination with exotic costumes and headdresses. With his masterful handling of black chalk and touches of red, Rubens executed a compelling drawing that features a figure wearing Asian costume - a depiction that has recently been identified as Man in Korean Costume. Despite the drawings renown - both during Ruben's own lifetime and in contemporary art scholarship - the reasons why it was made and whether it actually depicts a specific Asian person remain a mystery. The intriguing story that develops involves a shipwreck, an unusual hat, the earliest trade between Europe and Asia, the trafficking of Asian slave, and Jesuit missionaries.
