Religious and ethnic violence between Indonesia's Muslims and Christians escalated dramatically just before and after President Suharto resigned in 1998. In this first major ethnographic study of Christianization in Indonesia, Aragon delineates colonial and postcolonial circumstances contributing to the dynamics of these contemporary conflicts. Aragon's ethnography of Indonesian Christian minorities in Sulawesi combines a political economy of colonial missionization with a microanalysis of shifting religious ideology and practice. Fields of the Lord challenges much comparative religion scholarship by contending that religions, like contemporary cultural groups, be located in their spheres of interaction rather than as the abstracted cognitive and behavioral systems conceived by many adherents, modernist states, and Western scholars. Aragon's portrayal of "near-tribal" populations who characterize themselves as "fanatic Christians" asks the reader to rethink issues of Indonesian nationalism and "modern" development as they converged in President Suharto's late New Order state. Through its careful documentation of colonial missionary tactics, unexpected postcolonial upheavals, and contemporary Christian narratives, Fields of the Lord analyzes the historical and institutional links between state rule and individuals' religious choices. Beyond these contributions, this ethnography includes captivating stories of Salvation Army "angels of the forest" and nationally marginal but locally autonomous dry-rice and coffee farmers. These Salvation Army "soldiers" make Protestantism work on their own ecological, moral, and political turf, maintaining their communities and ongoing religious concerns in the difficult terrain of the Central Sulawesi highlands.

In this book, Kenneth Nehrbass examines the interaction between traditional or animistic religion (called kastom) and Christianity in Vanuatu. First, he briefly outlines major anthropological theories of animism, then he examines eight aspects of animism on Tanna Island and shows how they present a challenge to Christianity. He traces the history of Christianity on Tanna from 1839 to the present, showing which missiological theories the various missionaries were implementing. Nehrbass wanted to find out what experiences in the lives of the islanders distinguished those who left traditional religion behind from those who held on to it. In the end, he contends that there are twenty factors of gospel response and cultural integration that determine whether an animistic background believer will be a mixer, separator, transplanter, or contextualizer.

Come follow the Cosmic Christ on the path of the green priesthood, deep into the heart of a living web of Divine Creation. "Christian animism", for many, can suggest nothing more than crude syncretism, or a blasphemous oxymoron. In this book the author challenges that view, from his own experiences and reflections, and those of many who find themselves on the fringes of church and society. He also searches out the fertile places of his own Christian tradition, seeking to hear a Word of healing for our Earth, a Word of grace for the trees and the animals, and a Word of invitation back to the garden of Creation, our once and future home.

Hmong are a group of people who are recorded to have been living in China since 3,000 BC. History indicates that Hmong fought many wars with the Chinese to resist assimilation, as well as to repel oppression. Many were forced to migrate out of China to neighboring Southeast Asian countries during the middle of the eighteenth century due to political oppression, later on settling in Western countries such as the United States. For thousands of years, Hmong animism was the only religion they believed and practiced. However, by the grace of God, a large number of Hmong have turned to Christ. The book, Hmong Animism: A Christian Perspective offers a comparative religious study on the two belief systems. It explains Hmong animists belief in reincarnation, shamanism, and the worship of ancestors, household demons and wild demons in comparison to Hmong Christians beliefs in God and the Savior Jesus Christ."

Traditional religion on Tanna (Vanuatu) comprises a number of elements that are characteristic of animism. Early missionaries to Tanna deemed Christianity to be incompatible with traditional religion and attempted, with limited success, to displace it with Christianity. However, with the rise of cargo cults, nationalism, and the enculturation of the church in the mid-twentieth century, many Tannese began to consider Christianity and traditional religion as two roads to the same end. More denominations have since arrived, each idiosyncratic in its response to traditional religion. Some have leaned toward syncretism; others have dismissed outright much of the indigenous culture along with kastom, proscribing practices associated with animism, but not attempting to address the underlying animistic worldview. Still others have made a more conscious effort to contextualize Christianity, avoiding both separatism and syncretism.This research uncovers how Christians from animistic backgrounds decide which aspects of kastom to relinquish and which to retain. What distinguishes kastom-retainers from kastom-relinquishers? Alternately, what is the allure of the churches that are more accepting of traditional religionInterviews were conducted with members of numerous denominations in order to develop a grounded theory that suggests twenty factors that contribute to four ecclesiastical approaches toward animism on Tanna: mixing, separating, transplanting, and contextualizing. This study contributes to an ongoing discussion among church leaders in Vanuatu about animism, syncretism, and contextualization. While missionaries on other continents may find that Tannese Christians' responses toward animism diverge from their own contexts, the model for integrating Gospel and culture in this study may help church leaders to develop their own context-specific approach toward animism.
