- W2468732424 abstract "For a number of years I have been interested in the role of Japanese leaders in the development of new indigenous Christian movements and traditions in modern Japan. Early on in missionary circles there were serious discussions on developing indigenous churches, but this was understood primarily in terms of the “three-selfs”: self-support, self-control, and self-propagation. The idea that Japanese Christians might have their own insights and ways of organizing and practicing the faith was not generally entertained. Transmission of the missionary culture without corruption or addition was the primary concern. After Japanese converts were introduced to the Scriptures and went on to pursue serious theological studies, many realized that it was possible to distinguish the Christian faith and biblical traditions from the theology, church polity, and cultural values that were embedded in the transplanted American and European mission churches. The fact that numerous denominations were competing for converts on Japanese soil (each with its own doctrinal peculiarities and forms of government) indicated to many leaders that there might be room for Japanese interpretations and cultural expressions of Christianity. Carlo Caldarola’s Christianity: The Japanese Way (1979) represents a pioneering work in the sociological study of independent and indigenous forms of Christianity in Japan and was particularly helpful to me in the early stages of my own research in this f ield. This book focused on Uchimura KanzO and the Nonchurch movement (MukyOkai), the first independent expression of Japanese Christianity founded in 1901, which subsequently functioned as the fountainhead of other indigenous Christian movements in Japan. Uchimura’s version of Christianity was a Confucian one, grafted on to bushidO, and had particular appeal to the educated members of Japanese society. While Caldarola’s monograph provided an important beginning in the sociological study of indigenous Christian movements, his misleading subtitle “the Japanese Way” implied that there was one authentic Japanese version of Christianity. The successive appearance of numerous indigenous movements over the past century, however, indicates that there are other ways to be both Japanese and Christian." @default.
