In other words, I hear of great plans in the work for the Chinese and Koreans to start moving toward the Middle East, but what about Russia? Or is the cultural disparity too great? I am not excusing the Western Church, but since as you put it we have failed at the heart and head level to engage, I am wondering if the burgeoning Eastern Church is responding at any levels. For example, Harbin, China is right on the Russian border. Sam,
