The Church Under the Cross: Mission in Asia in Times of Turmoil is the illustrated two-volume account of Wendell Paul Karsen’s more than three decades of cross-cultural missionary work in East Asia.
In one sense a missionary memoir of Karsen’s life and ministry in Taiwan, Hong Kong, China, and Indonesia, the work also chronicles the inspiring story of the Christian communities Karsen served – churches which struggled to grow and witness under adverse circumstances throughout years of political turbulence and social upheaval.
