Christianity's demographics, vitality, and influence have tipped
markedly toward the global South and East. Addressing this seismic
shift, one of America's leading church historians shows how
studying world Christianity changed and enriched his understanding
of the nature of the faith as well as of its history.
Mark Noll illustrates the riches awaiting anyone who gains even a
preliminary understanding of the diverse histories that make up the
Christian story. He shows how coming to view human culture as
created by God was an important gift he received from the
historical study of world Christian diversity, which then led him
to a deeper theological understanding of Christianity itself. He
also offers advice to students who sense a call to a learned
vocation.
This is the third book in the Turning South series, which offers
reflections by eminent Christian scholars who have turned their
attention and commitments beyond North America.
