This collection of essays is committed to the belief that
evangelicalism continues to have the historical assets and
intellectual (hermeneutical and theological) tools able to
contribute to the global church. Evangelicalism possesses assets
with explanatory power to address significant theological and
cultural issues arising out of the churches in the Global South.
Evangelical approaches to contextualization and biblical studies
can produce valuable fruit. Therefore in May 2008 over a dozen
evangelical scholars (Chinese and Western) from the United States,
Hong Kong and Taiwan, came together to address issues of Christian
and evangelical identity. The Inter-Cultural Theological
Conversation was titled Beyond Our Past: Bible, Cultural Identity,
and the Global Evangelical Movement. This collection of papers from
the conference demonstrates the value of the careful balancing of
judicious appropriation of the social sciences and thorough
biblical inquiry. Questions of evangelical identity in China and
around the world are addressed from the disciplines of history,
biblical studies, and systematic theology/contextualization.
