Afterword. 330 $aThis book examines the Anglican Church in Malaysia from multiple angles, unpacking its history from British colonialism to today?s Muslim-majority Asian nation. Analyzing tense Christian-Muslim dialogue and volatile intercommunity relations, themes of ethnicity, identity, gender, and multiculturalism intersect in contexts of war, insurgency, and national independence. The Church?s two centuries of history unfold chronologically, but this study goes far beyond mere description of events; it is a critical, multidisciplinary, multilayered discussion that integrates contemporary, archival, and scholarly perspectives. It focuses on high-pressure interfaces between colonialists, clergy, sultans, indigenous, and immigrant groups. The roles of education and healthcare?as evangelism, or perhaps incentivization?are investigated, within evolving models of mission, conversion, and the broader context of Anglicanism in crisis. These diverse threads intertwine to produce a concise but comprehensive three-dimensional portrait of the Anglican Church in Malaysia. 606 $aTheology 606 $aChristianity and the social sciences 606 $aChristian sociology 606 $aSoutheast Asia$xHistory 606 $aChristian Theology 606 $aSocial Scientific Studies of Christianity 606 $aHistory of Southeast Asia 615 0$aTheology. 615 0$aChristianity and the social sciences. 615 0$aChristian sociology. 615 0$aSoutheast Asia$xHistory. 615 14$aChristian Theology. 615 24$aSocial Scientific Studies of Christianity. 615 24$aHistory of Southeast Asia. 676 $a283 676 $a283.595 700 $aJarvis$b Edward$0544749 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 912 $a9910590066703321 996 $aThe Anglican Church in Malaysia$92908664 997 $aUNINA
