Leadership in Japanese House Churches

Beschreibung

This study provides a survey of Japanese house church leaders, coupled with sociological analysis of leadership patterns in Japan focused primarily on the leadership of voluntary organisations and a historical review of house church movements, to determine the form and function of leaders and leadership within these movements. The key findings were that leadership is a function and not a role, is often coterminous with disciple-making, and can be characterized primary in terms of the maintainance of group cohesion.

Autor

Simon Cozens is fascinated by the subject of shame, having examined it through Western eyes, but also seen its cultural effects in Japan where he worked as a missionary. Significantly, he has worked shame issues through in his own life. He lectures in cultural anthropology at the Worldview Centre for Intercultural Studies in Tasmania, and preaches and leads workshops on shame. Previously he was a church planter with WEC International. This book reflects his passion to help the shame-prone to find grace and a home.
