A major catalyst for the growth of Korean Christianity occurred at
the turn of the twentieth century when Western missionaries
encountered the religious landscape of Korea. These
first-generation missionaries have been framed as destroyers of
Korean religion and culture. Yet, as Sung-Deuk Oak shows in The
Making of Korean Christianity, existing Korean religious tradition
also impacted the growth and character of evangelical Christianity.
The melding of indigenous Korean religions and Christianity led to
a highly localized Korean Christianity that flourished in the early
modern era. The Making of Korean Christianity sorts fact from myth
in this exhaustive examination of the local and global forces that
shaped Christianity on the Korean Peninsula. The Making of Korean
Christianity was recognized by the??International Bulletin of
Missionary Research as one of the top Fifteen Outstanding Books of
2013 for Mission Studies.
