Christianity in North Africa and West Asia cover

This comprehensive reference volume covers every country in North Africa and West Asia, offering reliable demographic information and original interpretative essays by indigenous scholars and practitioners. It maps patterns of growth and decline, assesses major traditions and movements, analyses key themes and examines current trends.

A welcome addition to the growing scholarship on Christianity in North Africa and West Asia. In an accessible style the forty contributors, most of whom are from the region, paint a broad picture of contemporary Christianity in North Africa and West Asia, including Cyprus, Sudan, Armenia, Georgia and Azerbaijan, preceded by an excellent introduction by Mariz Tadros. -- Heleen Murre-van den Berg * Journal of Eastern Christian Studies *
An accessible and up-to-date reference tool for those interested in finding an overview of the topic… I highly appreciate the attention given to making this a comprehensive text, both geographically and thematically * Professor Paul Rowe, Trinity Western University *
This volume is pure gold... I hope that those with an interest in Christianity in this region will make their way to the nearest library and begin to appreciate the extraordinary wealth of material found in its pages. -- Colin Chapman * Studies in World Christianity *
