Research studies suggest that young people from immigrant families
inherit at least two different cultural traits in the process of
identity formation, and the factors affecting the identity of young
people play an important role in the development of their
spirituality. Thus for the Chinese second generation in a
multicultural society, what are the main factors for their identity
formation that may lead to a distinctive spirituality? Do they
inherit the Chinese culture from their parents and the culture in
the society in an equal way? What are the characteristics of these
young people's spirituality? While the churches seek to nurture the
spirituality of these young people, it is important to understand
their characteristics and find the effective ways in their culture
to meet their needs. This book describes the young participants'
spirituality from their own perspectives, discusses their
construction of identity that led to their distinctive
spirituality, and studies their parents' worldviews and the role of
their church that have affected their spirituality. Finally, it
concludes with development of theories of spirituality related to
Chinese young people in a multicultural society, and proposes ways
in which churches and families may encourage the development of
spirituality for Chinese young people in a multicultural society.
