Description:
New. Christianity has become the most practiced religion among the Chinese in America, but very little solid research exists on Chinese Christians and their churches. This book is the first to explore the subject from the inside, revealing how Chinese Christians construct and reconstruct their identity-as Christians, Americans, and Chinese-in local congregations amid the radical pluralism of the late twentieth century.

"Yang's contribution documents how Christianity in general and Chinese churches in particular have integrally influenced the identity formation of Chinese immigrants. Furthermore, Yang's book suggests that Chinese evangelical Christians (as well as other recent immigrants) are the ones responsible for sustaining America's religiosity.
