Looking Like a Culture: Moden-ity and Multiculturalism in a Malaysian Village -- Following the Rice Year: Adat Gawai, Past and Present -- The Making of a 'Not Yet Pure Christian' Village -- Why Bidayuhs Don't Want to Become Muslim: Ethnicity, Christianity, and the Politics of Religion -- Speaking of (Dis)Continuity: Cultures of Christianity and the Christianization of 'Culture' -- 'We are One in Jesus'? Sociality, Salvation, and Moral Dilemmas -- Thinking through Adat Gawai: 'Culture,' Transformation, and the Matter of Religiosity --.

In this richly contextualized study, Liana Chua explores how a largely Christian Bidayuh community has been reconfiguring its relationship to its old animist rituals through the trope and politics of "culture." Placing her ethnography in dialogue with developments in the nascent anthropology of Christianity, Chua argues that such efforts at "continuity speaking" are the product not only of Malaysian cultural politics, but also of conversion and Christianity itself. This book invites scholars to rethink the nature and scope of conversion, as well as the multifarious, yet distinctive, forms that Christianity can take.
