Abstract

Migration has come to be regarded as one of the defining features – if not the feature – of our times. Church History as an academic discipline has so far paid only limited attention to this changing reality. What would a global history of Christianity look like if it were to pay attention the way people’s religion was influenced by experiences of disruption like migration and the conditions of diaspora?
