“[The] human vision of neighbourliness has begun to expand to include all creation, seen and unseen. Loving our neighbour has come to mean recycling, reforestation and cleaning up the waters around us.” —Mercy Oduyoye, _Beads and Strands_ #EcoTheology #WorldChristianity

"TRANSLINGUAL CATHOLICS narrates the overlooked contributions of #Catholic intellectuals of twentieth-century #China, correcting the unbalanced nature of scholarship on Chinese #Christianities." ~Alexander Chow #LiuInstitute #Theology Book: https://bit.ly/3NYFnCW

Conclusions are underrated. Really struggling to compose a compelling conclusion to a chapter I have otherwise finished writing. #AcWri

Really appreciate this thoughtful chapter-by-chapter reflection of 𝘊𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘦 𝘏𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘢𝘨𝘦 𝘪𝘯 𝘉𝘳𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘴𝘩 𝘊𝘩𝘳𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘢𝘯𝘪𝘵𝘺 from a Canadian perspective. #morethanforeigners @scmpress.bsky.social

Thread containing my stream of thoughts as I read through this book, "Chinese Heritage in British Christianity: More than Foreigners" edited by Alexander Chow

Another important Latin American theologian has passed: Samuel Escobar. He was a major figure in integral mission, often consider an evangelical form of “liberation theology.” www.christiandaily.com/news/samuel-...

Thanks be to God for Pope Francis—his life, his ministry, and his witness.

The entire Edinburgh Companions to Global Christianity is complete. I was honored to edit Vol 7 with Drs. Todd Johnson and Ken Ross. Read this older piece by Todd Johnson on my substack about Vol. 7 gracek.substack.com/p/edinburgh-...

this was a lovely evening celebrating a momentous occasion!

"The church is growing..." New research from our friends at the Bible Society and @theosthinktank.bsky.social OUT TODAY Find out about the #QuietRevival www.biblesociety.org.uk/research/qui... Are you seeing it in your church? #ChurchGrowth #ChurchesTogether

This will be a great day. Please consider joining us and potentially giving a short paper in the afternoon!

An important detail about the Bible Society report #QuietRevival is that 1/3 of churchgoers aged 18-54 are ethnic minorities. I suspect a lot of the “revival” has to do with migration and “reverse mission.” www.biblesociety.org.uk/research/qui...

Nice writeup by @nhatzaw.bsky.social about the book launch of Chinese Heritage in British Christianity. #morethanforeigners Really appreciate the support of @scmpress.bsky.social, Acts 11 of Church Mission Society, and @cswcedinburgh.bsky.social.

Today, hosted a delegation from the Presbyterian Church of Korean (Tonghap) at @uoedivinity.bsky.social. I gave a presentation on World Christianity and the history of mission at New College, traced back to Edinburgh 1910 which included a Korean delegate, Yun Chiho.

Yesterday evening, @uoedivinity.bsky.social colleagues and I celebrated with alumnus Rev’d Dr Junsoo Park who was inducted as minister of the newly established Newton Presbyterian Church. It is a church plant of Busan South Presbytery (Presbyterian Church of Korea, Tonghap) in West Lothian.
