I went to the women's lunch for Japanese Christians at Overlake Church in Redmond.
Maybe you know but Japanese people are not religious at all. In Japan when you are
born, your parents take you to Shrine for birth cerebration. When you get married,
a lot of people choose to have a Christian ceremony with White wedding dress. And
when you die, Buddhist priest come and your child or relative make a grave in the
in the Buddhist temple.
In the past, only 1% of Japanese population are Christian, and recent research shows
4% of adult say they are Christian. Compared to America, there is a very big gap.
In Korea, almost 30% are Christian.
This is one of the difficult matters when Westerner understand Japan. America is
based on Christianity, so that even though people do not go to church, you are
influenced by Christian value.
Pastor Nakagawa was the guest speaker on that day and he was fun and his
message was so meaningful. In today's world, people become more and more
selfish, influenced by more is good commercialism, but I think if you think again
what is important, you will have more meaningful life. I think especially today's
Japanese people need this.
