Pure Chinese


During one of my family gatherings, we asked a cousin of mine who is 10 years old if he wanted to go to church for a party. His reply was "My daddy say that we are pure chinese. If we go to church then we are no longer pure chinese.".

We do not know how to respond. Whether to laugh or to cry. But if you think about the reality of it. Our churches today, is not cultural. A lot of our ideas and the way we run church is exactly a copy of how the westerners run church. From the way we are suppose to dress to the style we present the gospel. Not that there is anything wrong in it but where is our culture that God has given us? God is not an American. A friend was commenting, "Let's serve Teh Tarik and roti canai for communion".
