Description ▲
Recent immigrant Christians from India are changing the face of American Christianity. This is the first comprehensive study of these Christians, their churches, and their adaptation. Contemporary mobility and rapid communication create new transnational religious groups, and Williams reveals some of the reverse effects on churches and institutions in India. He notes some successes and failures of mediating institutions in the United States in responding to new forms of Christianity brought by immigrants.
