The Chinese diaspora is well known for transnational economic activity, but less so for the impact of the diasporic Chinese church in the USA and elsewhere in the world. Surveying 652 US Chinese churches about their mission activities, along with interviews of a sub-set of respondents, Dr Wu provides analysis and explanation of mission activities using diaspora theories. The trend for Chinese diaspora church mission to take a “Chinese first” approach capitalizes on shared language, culture and transnational networks to advance the gospel. In this era of globalization, diaspora mission has never been so prescient. With special emphasis on the context of short-term missions, this book presents fascinating insight to a significant element of the ministry of the global church. This case of the Chinese church in the USA has many applications in the consideration of global missions outside of the Chinese diaspora.

For many years, cross-cultural missions were directed to people in the countries of their birth, generally in Majority World areas. Foreigners present among or around the intended focus of ministry were not viewed as part of mission ministry. Diaspora missions focus on these peoples, who are now actually and virtually in more accessible places. This book will help you understand the dynamics behind this accelerated movement of peoples from one region to another, biblical principles and precedents that guide ministry today, the application of social and communication studies, and actual cases of ministry to and with diaspora peoples.

The movement of people from their homelands is increasing exponentially. Such waves of both immigration and migration triggered by various factors have created new opportunities for the church and its mission. This volume explores such global diasporas from both ecclesiological and missiological perspectives. Its various case studies invite reconsideration of the missionary and evangelistic task of the church in response to contemporary global dynamics. The image of the dandelion on the front cover symbolizes diverse people groups dispersed around the globe, even as the Christian imagination views such dispersal as being carried by the winds of the Holy Spirit. For decades now, ethnic diasporas have played a critical role in spreading Christianity to new regions, while reshaping the faith in traditional centers of belief. It is extremely valuable, then, to have such an impressive and wide-ranging collection of essays on this epochal phenomenon. The book impresses by its truly global diversity of expertise, and the uniformly high quality of contributions. Indispensable. Dr. Philip Jenkins, Distinguished Professor of History, Institute for Studies of Religion, Baylor University This book makes a valuable contribution to our understanding of a complex global phenomenon. Written by leading thinkers in the burgeoning field of 'diaspora missiology', these essays offer collectively an informed and interdisciplinary view of the world through the lens of the global diasporas. The editors have achieved in this book a balance and breadth that suits the subject at hand and situates the reader for further study of this vital aspect of human flourishing in the twenty-first century. Dr. Michael Oh, Chief Executive Officer, The Lausanne Movement In an era of unprecedented global migratory flows, the extraordinary potential of migrant movement for missionary action has emerged as a fascinating and fruitful area of research and theological reflection. In Global Diasporas & Mission readers are presented with bold missiological assessments of the phenomenon by an impressive global cast of scholars whose approaches encompass the theological, biblical, and historical. This rich compendium of analyses and insights covers tremendous ground and showcases the multidisciplinary nature of the growing discourse on migration and mission. Dr. Jehu J. Hanciles, Associate Professor, Brooks Chair of World Christianity, Candler School of Theology, Emory University Chandler H. Im (PhD, Fuller Theological Seminary) is Director of Ethnic America Network and Director of Ethnic Ministries at the Billy Graham Center at Wheaton College (Wheaton, Illinois, USA), and Adjunct Professor of Mission at Faith Evangelical Seminary (Tacoma, Washington, USA).

As a 'divine conspiracy' for Missio Dei, the global phenomenon of people on the move has shown itself to be invaluable. In 2004 two significant documents concerning Diaspora were introduced, one by the Filipino International Network and the other by the Lausanne Committee for World Evangelization. These have created awareness of the importance of people on the move for Christian mission. Since then, Korean Diaspora has conducted similar research among Korean missions, resulting in this book. It is unique as the first volume researching Korean missions in Diasporic contexts, appraising and evaluating these missions with practical illustrations, and drawing on a wide diversity of researchers.

In U.S. Population Projections: 2005-2050, Pew Research Center reported that "The nation's population will rise to 438 million in 2050, from 296 million in 2005, and fully 82% of the growth during this period will be due to immigrants arriving from 2005 to 2050 and their descendants." This shows that it is essential to study and understand how our mission, especially in the context of the USA, called the nation of immigrants, will respond to this huge mobility of immigrant diaspora. So far, there has been emphasis on doing diaspora missiology; however, there is no practical implications and application in local church setting. Now mission is next door, which implies that the ministry of the local church should be emphasized for 21st contemporary mission. This book provides detailed frameworks and methods of diaspora missiology within local churches, called 'diaspora mission church.' According to the Bible, all human beings are theologically and spiritually diaspora, irrespective of ethnicity, because they were banished from the Garden of Eden, and scattered around the world in God's judgment. Now, they walk toward the encounter with Jesus Christ, preach the gospel as the seed of Kingdom, and finally move toward heaven.

The 21st Century is marked by mass migration. Massive population movements of the last century have radically challenged our study and practice of ""mission fields."" Where the church once rallied to go out into ""the regions beyond,"" Christian missions is currently required to respond and adapt to ""missions around."" This volume analyses the development of missions to the migrants and develops an understanding of the contemporary church's opportunities and responsibility vis-a- vis Diaspora Missiology: ""a missiological framework for understanding and participating in God's redemptive mission among peoples living outside their places of origin."" As a wholistic missiologist and original Lausanner (active participant since 1974), I warmly welcome and highly recommend this comprehensive study on a globally relevant topic as both foundational and directional. This timely volume is a missio Dei viatorum at its best, focused on diaspora from a full-fledged biblical perspective while taking into account the migrant phenomena in their global diversity. Peter Kuzmic, PhD, Dr.Theol. Distinguished Professor of World Mission and European Studies, Gordon-Conwell TS, USA Founding Director of Evangelical Theological Seminary, Osijek, Croatia After being born as the son of immigrants who left Asia to pursue the ""American Dream,"" I later returned to Asia to share the gospel of Jesus Christ in the land of my father's former enemies, the Japanese. It is my joy to wholeheartedly commend to you this Global Diaspora Missiology Compendium that so powerfully describes the East to West and West to East dynamics of my own family history. This volume puts out a clarion call to the global church about a critically important mission need and strategy. In the most simple and direct fashion I can say to you that you cannot understand the full picture of global mission without understanding Diaspora Missiology. MichaelY. Oh, Ph.D., Lausanne Movement Executive Director/CEO The publication of Scattered and Gathered: A Global Compendium of Diaspora Missiology is a significant milestone. The high quality of the international conversation captured in the book makes it a veritable tour de force. A great resource for students and researchers of Christian mission and world Christianity.

This book will help readers understand how God used cities to reach out to lost human kind. Some of the examples highlighted in the scripture are brought to the readers notice to understand the urgency of diaspora mission in these last days. The book emphasizes that every Christian living in cities has been brought there for fulfilling the eternal purpose of God in saving the world. The author reflects this truth by his vision of transforming migrated life into mission life in Bangalore city. This is a timely and very urgent concern. It is the responsibility of the people who have experienced salvation from Jesus Christ to transform their migrated life into mission life. Through this book the author encourages everyone, especially Christian Tamils to reach out to people of this great city.

Filipino diasporas are among the largest group of people scattered around the world. This book explores the practice of diaspora missions through intercultural campus ministry and the unique challenges first-generation Filipino missionaries experience as diasporas in the global north when engaging in global missions. These challenges include contexts (High and Low), time orientation, trust formation, and degree of interdependence (individualism and collectivism). Relational realism is the linking paradigm to understand our unparalleled leverage in employing intercultural campus ministry towards diaspora missions and becoming an intercultural church. This book is intended for three kinds of readership: a.) First-generation Filipino (or from the Majority World) missionaries and church planters ready to move their church from monocultural practices to an intercultural church. b.) Christians and leaders who want are curious of intercultural campus ministry praxis and how it will influence global missions, campus ministry, and church planting. (edited version) c.) Christian leaders (i.e., pastors and missions executives, etc., ) and trainers (i.e., faculty members of seminary and Bible school) who are interested in knowing the challenges of first-generation diaspora missionaries from the Majority World who will serve in the post-Christendom West.
