      abstract = {This book highlights the expansion of the influential  Pentecostal Hillsong Church global megachurch network from  Australia across global cities. Drawing on ethnographic  research in Amsterdam and New York City, Klaver shows that  global cities harbor nodes in transnational religious  networks. By taking a lived religion approach, media is  analysed as an integral part of everyday practices of  interaction, expression and consumption of religion. Key  question are raised regarding how processes of  mediatization shape, alter and challenge this thriving  cosmopolitan expression of Pentecostalism. Current debates  in the study of religion are also addressed: religious  belonging and community in global cities; the interrelation  between media technology, religious practices and beliefs;  religion, media and social engagement in global cities;  media and emerging modes of religious leadership and  authority. Pressing societal issues such as institutional  responses to sexual abuse of children, views on gender  roles, misogyny and mediated constructions of femininity  are discussed. The book will be of interest to students and  researchers of anthropology of religion, religious studies,  sociology of religion, particularly religion and  globalisation, religion and media and urban religion.},
