About the book

Light in the East was written for missionaries, pastors, students, and believers who want to understand Buddhist culture and share the love of Christ with wisdom, humility, compassion, and respect.

Drawing from years of missionary experience in Thailand, Edgar Alitto shares real stories, biblical reflections, and practical lessons on building relationships, understanding the Buddhist worldview, serving local communities, and communicating the Gospel with cultural sensitivity.
