Christianity and COVID-19: Pathways for Faith (Routledge New Critical Thinking in Religion, Theology and Biblical Studies)

This volume explores current understandings of the global meaning of faith and suffering in the context of COVID-19 and interrogates responses to the pandemic that have emerged from World Christianity. It includes chapters by a range of international contributors approached from a variety of angles within the Global Christian theology. They provide reflections and analyses focused on the question of God, human suffering, structural injustice, the role of the church and Christian praxis in the milieu of COVID-19, where misery and dying are daily routine. This book will be of interest to scholars of Missiology, World Christianity, biblical/public/contextual theology and various contemporary Christian studies.
