The Next Evangelicalism

Rev. Dr. Soong-Chan Rah, Professor of Church Growth and Evangelism at North Park Seminary, speak about his award winning book, The Next Evangelicalism Saturday, July 17.  Christianity Today awarded Professor Rah a coveted 2010 Golden Canon Leadership Award.

In his book, he addresses the issues of materialism and individualism and how these and other elements in western culture have negatively impacted the practices, thinking and theology of the evangelical church, including many Asian American churches. His writing has been described as provocative.  He also argues that we need to learn from ethnic and African American churches for a more complete picture of how the church is growing.

Dr. Rah will be speaking from 6:00 – 7:30 PM at the New York Chinese Alliance Church, 162 Eldridge St., New York, NY  10002.  (NYCAC is on the lower east side, near the B,D, F, J & M trains.)
