SUMMARY:Virtual Book Launch of "Chinese Christian Witness"
DESCRIPTION:You are invited to join a conversation about the new book\, Chinese Christian Witness: Identity\, Creativity\, Transmission and Poetics\, edited by Xiaoli Yang and Daryl Ireland. \nThis volume explores how Chinese Christians have understood and participated in mission over the past few centuries.

For those interested in Chinese Christians in the People’s Republic of China\, the book includes chapters on both registered and unregistered churches. \nOne distinctive feature is that the book also considers multiple artworks by Chinese Christians: plays\, songs\, paintings\, sculptures\, etc. They provide an opportunity to discover Chinese missiology through understudied media. \nThe editors\, authors\, and artists are spread around the globe\, so the time of the book launch is presented here in multiple time zones. \n🌎 May 14 – 6:00 PM (Los Angeles) | 🌎 May 14 – 9:00 PM (Boston) | 🌏 May 15 – 9:00 AM (Beijing) | 🌏 May 15 – 11:00 AM (Melbourne) \nTo receive the Zoom link to the event\, you will need to register.

Ireland \nPublisher: Brill \nThis groundbreaking book brings Chinese missiology to the forefront\, offering a rare insider’s perspective on the rise of Chinese Christianity. It explores the diverse expressions of the missionary impulse that have driven Chinese Christians for centuries—across continents and theological traditions—to share their faith with remarkable dynamism and impact. Interdisciplinary\, intergenerational\, interdenominational\, and ecumenical in scope\, this book showcases the depth and breadth of Chinese Christian witness in both local and global contexts. By delving into themes of identity\, creativity\, transmission\, and poetics\, it draws on unpublished data\, archival sources\, and rare images to offer fresh insights and perspectives. Readers will discover how Chinese literary pioneers\, bold missionaries\, and visionary artists are transforming individuals\, cultures\, and societies worldwide through their vibrant and enduring faith. \nRobyn WhitakerReverend Associate Professor Robyn Whitaker is a biblical scholar and historian with a particular interest in the contemporary use (and misuse) of the Bible in debates about sexuality\, gender and ethics.

SUMMARY:Felix Arnott Lecture with The Reverend Dr Elizabeth J Smith AM
DESCRIPTION:In our own accent: Australian English in worship and mission\nWhat is our Australian Anglican liturgical accent? How has it evolved?

And if our liturgical language needs to keep evolving\, what might it start to sound like? \nJoin us for refreshments from 5:30 PM\, followed by the lecture commencing at 6:00 PM. Attendance is available both in person and online\, making it easy for you to be part of this engaging event wherever you are. \nStay tuned for the livestream link or registration details\, and we look forward to welcoming you for an evening of thought-provoking discussion and community connection. \nThe Reverend Dr Elizabeth J Smith AM\nThe Reverend Dr Elizabeth J Smith AM has been a member of the General Synod Liturgy Commission since 1997.
