Abstract

This introductory chapter focuses on some highlights of Philippine Christianity as it developed in the colonial—333 years under Spanish rule (1565–1898) and 48 years under the US-American regime (1898–1946)—as well as the post-colonial contexts with a particular focus on the resistance and accommodation in the Philippines and the diaspora, as this has been inspired by the Christian faith.
