This dissertation addresses two problems in Christian religious education theory and practice: first, the lack of a model for awakening people to the work of the Holy Spirit personally and communally; second, the lack of a theory that nurtures Christian religious experience and evokes spiritual awakening. In particular, few present models account for Chinese Christian experience.

520 $a This dissertation addresses two problems in Christian religious education theory and practice: first, the lack of a model for awakening people to the work of the Holy Spirit personally and communally; second, the lack of a theory that nurtures Christian religious experience and evokes spiritual awakening. In particular, few present models account for Chinese Christian experience.
520 $a The primary purpose of this dissertation in addressing the above problems is to uncover seeds for a Spirit-centered education grounded in spiritual practices. Drawing from a cross-cultural study of John Sung's and John Wesley's spiritual experiences, we can draw implications that are unique for Chinese churches.
520 $a This dissertation presents an historical and biographical study of the religious experiences and practices of John Sung (an early twentieth century Chinese Methodist revivalist) and John Wesley (an eighteenth century Anglican priest, revivalist and founder of Methodism). Commonalities emerge that inspire a Spirit-centered education. Both leaders experienced spiritual awakening. Both affirmed that spiritual awakenings could be nurtured through explicit invitation of the Holy Spirit and other spiritual practices. Finally, both perceived that seeds for awakening and living in the Spirit include spiritual practices of prayer, scripture, witness, hymn/chorus praises and journal writing.
520 $a The study of their divergent experiences of the Holy Spirit will indicate the unique Chinese spiritual experiences. Sung's experience was displayed more in allegorical stories, public confession, witness, and healing of the sick. Wesley's experience of the Spirit was displayed in inward and outward holiness. In contrast to Sung, Wesley captured the English experience. Both offer inspiration for Chinese churches.
520 $a The body of this dissertation is presented in five parts: first, an overview of structure and method; second, two chapters tracing the role of the Spirit in Chinese Christianity and in educational theory in the United States; third, two chapters focusing on Wesley's and Sung's understandings of the Holy Spirit; fourth, two chapters on models for spiritual revival and Christian education inspired by them; fifth, implications for curriculum and pedagogy in Christian education.
520 $a The Spirit-centered education inspired by this study aims at nurturing spiritual awakening and evoking passions for holiness and mission, especially in Chinese churches.
