Recenzii
This is an important and impressive work. It is the first book to bring together all that we have learned in recent years about African Christian diasporas in Europe and the United States. Afe Adogame brings to this volume not only his powers of synthesis, but also the fruits of his own research on three continents. He shows how Africans' religious dynamism is changing the environment of the very countries where they are settling.
The presence of African Christians and of African churches is being increasingly recognized as an important feature of the Christianity of Europe and North America. That presence is also a manifestation of a greater World Christianity. We owe much gratitude to Dr Adogame for this valuable book, with its comprehensive survey of the development and its useful demostration of the demographic, economic, political and legislative settings.
Based on extensive ethnographic research over the last 17 years, this is the first true synthesis of what's been happening in Europe and America as African Christians have migrated, settled in, established networks, and fostered dynamic patterns of church growth. Eye-opening in its implications.
Unforgettable and uplifting.
