Description
In this carefully researched and thoughtfully written book, Daniel Tong ponders the dilemmas faced by many Chinese Christians. The book seeks to provide some guidelines on the cultural practices that believers may or may not be a part of, and offers sound biblical reasons for the decisions. It discusses the major festivals celebrated, the practice of ancestral worship and traditional Chinese medical care, and gives a brief description of the main tenets of the religious philosophies that undergird these traditions. The goal, asserts the author, is simply to help Christians live their faith to the fullest, while maintaining the fact that they come from an ethnic group with a long and rich heritage.
