Trigger Warning: this episode has mild discussion of suicide. In this episode, Kelsie and Brooke learn from Dr. Melissa Inouye, a historian of modern China and global Christianity about a woman named "True Way" whose life story crossed through Imperial China to the Cultural Revolution through three distinct and unique periods of Chinese history. Inouye's research focuses on the history of global charismatic Christian movements, including the True Jesus Church and The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Her recent book, China and the True Jesus: Charisma and Organization in a Chinese Christian Church (Oxford 2019) explores the relationship between miraculous power and bureaucratic power in the history of a Chinese Christian Pentecostal church. In addition to publications on the history of modern China, she has also published on topics such as global Mormonism and women’s participation in religious movements. This episode is so fascinating.
