Klappentext zu „The Hillsong Movement Examined “
This interdisciplinary volume brings together leading writers and thinkers to provide a critique of a broad range of topics related to Hillsong Church. Hillsong is one of the most influential, visible, and (in some circles) controversial religious organizations/movements of the past thirty years. Although it has received significant attention from both the academy and the popular press, the vast majority of the scholarship lacks the scope and nuance necessary to understand the complexity of the movement, or its implications for the social, cultural, political, spiritual, and religious milieus it inhabits. This volume begins to redress this by filling important gaps in knowledge as well as introducing different audiences to new perspectives. In doing so, it enriches our understanding of one of the most influential Christian organizations of the late 20th and early 21st centuries.

Pressezitat
"The strength of this volume is the commitment of its contributors and editors to understand the Hillsong movement on its own terms. Every discipline and methodology engaged utilizes the tools, terminologies, and frameworks available to provide new insight into the ecclesiological phenomenon ... . This volume provides us with their introduction, and several points at which we can begin to dialogue and discern together the shape of Pentecostal engagement with the Great Commission and Great Commandment in the 21st century." (David Ketter, Pneuma, Vol. 40 (3), 2018)
