Overview
Presents the establishment process, shaping methods and main characteristics of the "charisma" of church leaders based on the study of a church of migrant rural workers in Beijing. Identifying "hardship" and "miracle" as the key elements for the maintenance and expression of "charisma", the book discusses how the "charisma" of church leaders plays a coherent role in the establishment of the "fellowship of love", a key factor of the existence and continuous development of churches. Includes an analysis of a special group of migrant workers who differentiate themselves in terms of their religious expression and ways of organizing and operating the church. Explores the issues of urbanization in light of the relationship between religion and society, culture and religion, as well as between ideas and life in general.
