The centre of gravity of contemporary Christianity has shifted to
the southern hemisphere. However, except in South America, almost
all Christians in the southern hemisphere are minorities in their
home countries. In Asia they live amongst the Muslim, Hindu,
Buddhist, Shamanist or Taoist majorities, which are increasingly
affecting the Christian theology that is done there. The same is
happening in Africa, in the relation between African Christians and
traditional African religions. A non-Western theology with its own
images and concepts is coming into being. Translated from the
original Dutch edition published in 2006, The Non-Western Jesus
uses the concept double transformation as a guideline in the
description of the genesis of this theology. For the author, this
term indicates that concepts are applied to Jesus that in Western
opinion add new dimensions to Jesus, while the concepts themselves
are also changed through their application to Jesus. Change thus
occurs on both sides. As a result, Jesus is undergoing a
transformation that is both unprecedented and exciting.
