Postdoc UNSW. Agricultural development in Cold War Taiwan.
Just read CS Song's Third Eye Theology. Really drew me to contextual theology and Church's engagement with third-worldism in the 70s!
My article is the featured article @cswcedinburgh.bsky.social so free to read. Please spread the news... #ecumenical #mission #CSSong
Benjamin Aldous (@jazzgoat.bsky.social) examines the theological and missiological contributions of C. S. Song, asking critical questions as to how Song can be better appreciated in the ecumenical landscape of England. #ecumenism @churchesengland.bsky.social 4/6

Recently I'm writing about a demographer who was among the first postwar student sent from Taiwan to Princeton under Rockefeller Foundation grant. Just realized that the person (98 yrs old!) is willing to have an interview. Has the rare moment when a historical figure comes alive 🤯🤯
