Book excerpt: This volume of essays, the first in a new 'Christinaity in Asia Series, from the Trinity Theological College, Singapore, marks a fresh approach to articulate the character of Christian social engagement in East Asia today. Key institutional interpreters of Christianity in Asia Sinagpore and China, inspite of their obvious dissimilarities, share a similar desire to make religion a positive factor in promoting the common good. Hard earnered social stability, after all, can be undermineds by ethnic and religious conflicts. Hence the ongoing political and social engagement by Chinese and Singaporean Christians should be of immense interest to both academics and practicioners.
