In this groundbreaking study, the authors
make an unsettling claim: Anabaptist churches
of the Global South have more in common
with the church of the first three centuries
than they do with contemporary churches
in Europe and North America that claim the
Anabaptist name. With data from eighteen
thousand church members in ten countries,
they show how historical patterns of church
renewal are repeating themselves today in the
Asia, Africa, and Latin America. The study
does more than crunch statistics; it probes the
sources and nature of the renewal and growth.
And it pushes readers to ask what these trends
can teach the churches of the North in their
own quest for faithfulness and vitality.
