Descrição
Resumo:While insider movements are common in the Muslim and Hindu world, they are rare in the Buddhist world. This case study summarizes the formation and development of an insider movement among Buddhists in Thailand. The key principles in the movement are presented and analyzed. Among them are the importance of reaching entire families, avoiding Christian practices that can become a stumbling block to others, promoting the priesthood of all believers, C5 contextualization, and the powerful testimony of a family following Jesus and being transformed by him.
