Society of Asian North American Christian Studies launched

The Institute for the Study of Asian American Christianity (ISAAC)
has announced the formation of the Society of Asian North American Christian Studies. SANACS seeks to provide a community for scholars who are interested in Asian North American Christianity. They are a part of a growing interest in the study of religion in Asian and Pacific North America.

The announcement also mentions two new books that will be published by Orbis Books in Spring 2008: “Introducing Asian American Theologies” by Jonathan Tan and “Hospitality and the Other” by Amos Yong. All of this looks to be significant developments towards the future of Asian American Christianity.
