The Protestant Reformation and World Christianity: Global Perspectives

The sixteenth-century Reformation in all its forms and expressions sought nothing less than the transformation of the Christian faith. Five hundred years later, in today's context of world Christianity, the transformation continues. This volume draws together a variety of international Christian perspectives to open up new understandings of the Reformation.

Dale Irvin and six other expert scholars here offer general discussions and case studies of the effects of the Protestant Reformation on global communities from the sixteenth century to the present. Together, these essays encourage a reading and interpretation of the Reformation that will aid in the further transformation of Christianity well into the twenty-first century.
