Global Christianity in Local Context is the first volume of a unique collection of essays in honour of David A. Kerr, well-known for his contributions in the areas of Christian-Muslim dialogue, Ecumenical Studies and Missions. With contributions from recognized experts in these fields, the book provides a platform for examining contemporary Christian-Muslim relations and critical issues facing twenty-first century Christianity. In Volume 1, scholars and Church leaders offer insights into current trends in Local Theology and Missions from the contexts of Asia, Africa, Latin America and Europe. "Besides the variety of contexts, the Festschrift also includes numerous accounts of scholars from different Churches and ecclesial communities. This volume paints a global picture of World Christianity. Thus, it is useful for those who are interested in local theology, mission and dialogue."
