Now in its third edition, Christianity as a World Religion locates the Christian faith within its global context. Structured by geographical region, it covers Asia, Africa, Europe, Latin America and the Caribbean, North America, and Oceania, showing how Christianity is locally rooted in different communities. Within each region, it considers the history of the spread and reception of Christianity there; distinctive forms of church, worship and theology; the interreligious relations of the churches; and Christian interaction with society, politics, and economics.

New to this edition:

- Further coverage of the role of migration and transnational movements
- Additional attention to Orthodox Churches, Pentecostalism
- More explicit coverage of race and race theory, gender and sexuality, theory and method of world Christianity
- Relevant updates throughout, including #blacklivesmatter, climate-change, Hispanic migration to the US, the Covid-19 pandemic, the significance of Ukraine.
- Chapter summaries and updated recommended readings

Also included are study questions, maps, and 40 images. Online resources provide additional case studies for use by instructors. Methodologies covered include religious studies, theology, history, and cultural, social and development studies, so it is ideal for courses on World Christianity, Christianity as a Global Religion, the History of Christianity and contemporary Christian Theology
