The rise of Christianity around the world has been the impetus for
much religious and social change. The interconnectivity of
religious centers has resulted in theological dialogue and
innovation. The subversion of long-held categories of culture,
gender, race, spirituality, theology, and politics has naturally
occurred along with the transgressing of borders and boundaries.
Yet at the same time, there has been occasion for healing through
intercultural experiences of forgiveness, peacemaking, and
reconciliation. Stimulated by the work and mentorship of Joel
Carpenter, who has done much to expand the study of world
Christianity less through focusing on his own research and writing,
and more through amplifying the voices of others, the international
contributors to this volume from all six continents promote a
deeper understanding of World Christianity through the exploration
of such related themes. Whether discussing primal spirituality in
northeast India, white supremacy in South Africa, evangelical women
and civic engagement in Kenya, or Calvinism in Mexico, the
contributors draw upon ethnographic case studies to more deeply
understand interconnectivity, subversion, and healing in World
Christianity. Their essays provoke a reorientation of Christian
thought within the study of World Christianity, enriching the
current discourse and promoting vistas for further
interdisciplinary studies.
