Dr Jean Uayan comprehensively weaves the story of six Protestant Chinese churches in the Philippines into the local history of their individual settings in this important study. Uncovering new insight and historical information from extensive primary and secondary sources, Uayan presents a rich and previously unacknowledged heritage and support from four American mission organisations during the US occupation from 1898–1946. The seeds sown amongst Chinese communities across the Philippines resulted in indigenous churches that took differing journeys to full independence and now are also bearing fruit in missionary activity in South Fujian, China. This book is an important contribution towards a global church history acknowledging the work of the Holy Spirit establishing and building up the church of Jesus Christ among the nations.
This book is a collection of stories and poems written by John W. Wood. Some of the stories come from his memories as a boy growing up in Flint, Michigan. There are poignant lyrics of love lost and then found. Born during WWII, John grew up during the Korean War, and his writing has been inspired by the memories of the military men who came home. As a peace officer and bodyguard, John has met people from all walks of life. His time in the Marines gave him opportunities to work for, and with, many veterans. They shared their stories of combat, and this comes out in his poems. This collection speaks of failures and triumphs, and above all, it speaks from the heart.
