Placing God: Defining “Post-Christianity” For Contemporary Japanese Christians, Leryan Anthony Burrey

Master's Projects and Capstones

This work suggests that we consider a new, working definition of post-Christianity. This new paradigm is in response to Western Christian thought being too dominant a force that fails to take into enough account other global experiences— like those of Japanese Christians.

This Capstone examines the influence of relationship theory on a faith-based organization’s impact.

Then a total of 6 expert interviews were conducted, 3 …
