Stark Approaches The Topic From An Extensive Research Background In Christianity And Chinese History, And Wang Provides An Inside Look At Christianity And Its Place In Her Home Country Of China. Both Authors Cover The History Of Religion In China, Disproving Older Theories Concerning The Number Of Christians And The Kinds Of Christians That Have Emerged In The Past 155 Years. Stark And Wang Claim That When Just Considering The Visible Christiansthose Not Part Of Underground Churchesthousands Of Chinese Are Still Converted To Christianity Daily, And Forty New Churches Are Opening Each Week.A Star In The East Draws On Two Major National Surveys To Sketch A Closeup Of Religion In China.
