Building on the success of EUP’s highly acclaimed Atlas of Global Christianity, this volume is the seventh in a series of reference works that takes the analysis of worldwide Christianity to a deeper level of detail. It focuses on Christianity in North America, covering every country and offering both reliable demographic information and original interpretative essays by locally based scholars and practitioners. It maps patterns of growth and decline, assesses major traditions and movements, analyzes key themes, and examines current trends. As a comprehensive account of the presence of Christianity in every part of North America, this volume will become a standard work of reference in its field.
This book has made an important beginning at explaining its subject in terms of Christianity viewed globally. -- Mark A. Noll, University of Notre Dame * International Bulletin of Mission Research *
This is an important book at a time when religion is undergoing a significant paradigm shift on levels of affiliation, doctrine and practice. Readers will certainly find here a wealth of insights and information here to reflect on. -- Ilia Delio, Villanova University
This volume covers a wide breadth of topics such as racial justice and gender justice, and includes regional issues as well as denominational concerns. The contributors all provide diverse voices and considerations to pertinent issues of our time in North America. A wonderful volume for scholars, students and the church. -- Stacey Floyd-Thomas, Vanderbilt University
