| Abstract | Chen deals with the seeming paradox of why an "other-worldly" Taiwanese immigrant Buddhist temple is more publicly engaged in American society than an "inner-worldly" Taiwanese immigrant Christian church. The temple's inner-worldy orientation of Buddhist practice leads it to public interaction through charity while the church's evangelical ideal of exclusive salvation leads it to engagement through personal evangelism.
