Special Issue “Revisioning Latin American Christian Theology”

Latin American Christian theology — whether biblical, historical, systematic, practical, missional, or contextual — is as varied as the cultural tapestry that weaves the region. This Special Issue on Latin American Christian Theology welcomes interdisciplinary contributions that seek to propose new approaches in light of the “new realities” shaping Latin American as a region or any specific country in particular. By looking to the past, describing the present, and proposing a way forward, this Issue will contribute to a new body of knowledge within global Christianity in general, and Latin American studies in particular.

Deadline for manuscript submissions: 31 July 2021
