Beschreibung
Every Sunday several million Chinese citizens flock to urban churches in the big cities of the People’s Republic of China. How do they conceive the meaning of Christian life when China, in search for new moral orientation, turns to ‘Chinese traditional values’ and ‘core socialist values’? Through comparison between the prevailing ‘moral language’ reflected in schoolbooks and descriptions of Christian life in sermons, this empirical study provides tangible insight into the changes which happen when Chinese morality meets the Christian Gospel.
