ABOUT THE BOOK | World Christianity in Western Europe: Diasporic  Identity, Narratives & Missiology  

Christianity is a world religion with about 2.3 billion Christians.  While World Christianity with its attention on the explosive growth of  Christianity in Africa, Asia, Latin America, the Pacific and Oceania is definitely significant, it is also important to consider World  Christianity as it is developing in Europe. This book investigates this phenomenon in Western Europe through the prisms of Diasporic Identity,  migrant narratives and their mission theology. It considers the complex  Christian identity of people migrating to Europe, their stories and mission praxis. Here is a book including contributors who are scholars and practitioners. These scholars and practitioners are Europeans as well as migrants from the Majority World (Africans, Caribbean, South  Asia and Latin Americans) employing an interdisciplinary approach, their work encompasses the fields of Diaspora Missiology, Practical Theology,  World Christianity, Contextual Theology and Pentecostal Studies.
