Summary

In this concise yet detailed study, Rev. Timothy Garner Conkling PhD., a veteran missionary and pastor to China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Indonesia, and the US, examines the similarities and differences that practitioners of traditional Chinese religions and Christian believers encounter as they seek to appease, manipulate, worship, and engage the inhabitants of the unseen realm.

This audiobook is a must-listen for those who want to understand the differences in world view and religious practice that exist between Christians and those who follow Chinese Buddhism, Taoism, or indigenous Chinese traditional religions. It also offers important insights into which practices traditional Chinese religious believers would have to stop or change if they become Christians.

Engaging the Spirits outlines the inhabitants of the unseen realm for both religions and details the representative practices of Chinese ancestor worship, divination, spirit-possession, and exorcism in comparison with Christian spiritual warfare, prayer, and exorcism.
