In this first in-depth and wide-ranging narrative history, David W. Kling examines the dynamic of individuals, families, and people groups who turn to the Christian faith. Global in reach, this text progresses from early Christian beginnings in the Roman world to Christianity's expansion into Europe, the Americas, China, India, and Africa. Although conversion is often associated with a particular strand of modern Christianity (evangelical) and a particular type of experience (sudden, overwhelming), it is, when examined over two millennia, a phenomenon far more complex than any one-dimensional profile would suggest. 000938009 588__ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from home page (viewed on July 10, 2020). 000938009 650_0 $$aConversion$$xChristianity$$xHistory. 000938009 650_0 $$aChristian converts$$xHistory. 000938009 650_0 $$aChurch history. 000938009 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9780195320923 000938009 830_0 $$aOxford scholarship online. 000938009 85280 $$bebk$$hOxford Scholarship Online 000938009 85640 $$3Oxford scholarship online$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://dx.doi.org/10.1093/oso/9780195320923.001.0001$$zOnline Access 000938009 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:938009$$pGLOBAL_SET 000938009 980__ $$aEBOOK 000938009 980__ $$aBIB 000938009 982__ $$aEbook 000938009 983__ $$aOnline
