Many American Christians believe they belong to the most persecuted religious community in the world. This book provides a historical account of this way of imagining the world, evaluating the evidence used to support it, and reflecting upon its religious and political implications.
 

Global Visions of Violence argues that violence creates a lens, bridge, and method to examine Christianity worldwide. These chapters illuminate often hidden landscapes that have been shaped by global visions of violence, showing how Christians in Africa, Asia, and Latin America respond to violence as they express their Christian faith.
