As world Christianity shifts from the first world to the third, perspectives and methods are also coming under the microscope. Many traditional and comfortable models of Christianity are in flux due to this development, and to this end Interpreting Contemporary Christianity has been compiled. Over a dozen experts and writers on world Christianity come together to address various issues such as new evangelical universities, Pentecostal influences, and African Christian expressions. An in-depth bibliography with hundreds of additional resources makes this book a wealth of information on this burgeoning topic.
