{"product_id":"theology-of-culture-in-a-atsuyoshi-fujiwara-9781606088630","title":"Theology of Culture in a Japanese Context","description":"The Christian faith has always stood in a place of tension between its transcendent nature and the surrounding culture. On the one hand, Christian faith claims to originate in the revelation of God, which transforms culture itself. On the other hand, all such revelation is inevitably received and interpreted by humans in concrete situations. It is no exaggeration to say that two millennia of church history have continually demonstrated the struggle between Christian faith and culture. In an effort to address this struggle, this book explores relevant issues pertinent to the relationship between faith and culture in the particular context of Japan. In this unique work, the context of Japan, well known as a desolate swamp for Christian missions, provides the setting for a re-exploration of issues pertaining to theology of culture. As such, Japan provides both a concrete and challenging context to work out a theology of culture. This book also helpfully illuminates for Western readers some key problems that may not have appeared fully in their contexts yet but will do so as the post-Christendom era continues.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Atsuyoshi Fujiwara\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1606088637\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781606088630\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Pickwick Publications\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/01\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 416\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 5.90w x 0.90d","brand":"Atsuyoshi Fujiwara","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44181326397695,"sku":"9781606088630","price":54.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_812bad40-5c58-4ef8-baa8-9e5136efed1c.jpg?v=1690259838","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/theology-of-culture-in-a-atsuyoshi-fujiwara-9781606088630","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
