Riassunto

Social Sources of Church Growth is the product of a comprehensive scientific study conducted to unveil the unexplained explosive growth of the Korean church both in Korea and overseas. Despite much discourse on this subject, Han explains that previous attempts to understand growth are futile without first employing the concept of church as social institution. Han investigates the growth with references to pervasive Korean culture, education, industrialization, and other religions.
