Recenzii
"Tracking the expansion of Hillsong from Australia to Brazil, Cristina Rocha highlights the central role of its distinctive aesthetic style in holding the network together globally while also making it touch ground in the Brazilian charismatic field. This amazing ethnography offers a highly innovative methodological and conceptual intervention into the study of global Pentecostalism."
Cool Christianity is readable and, importantly, fair. Both newcomers and experts, critics and attendees can enjoy and be challenged by this overview of young transnational 'cool' pentecostalism.
Cool Christianity is a must-read for scholars interested in Hillsong, Pentecostalism, and Megachurch Christianity more broadly. Scholars of material religion will be inspired by Rocha's focus on the Hillsong sensational form and its ability to travel transnationally and adapt to local settings-a topic ...[that] has not been studied previously with such rich ethnographic detail. The book is timely and reflects on the recent stress that the Hillsong movement has come under after its founder has been implicated in a number of scandals.
This is an important study for theologians and churches to engage with. Rocha's writing is exquisite, scholarly and accessible.
