Journal of Latin American Theology, Volume 11, Number 2
Journal of Latin American Theology: Christian Reflections from the Latino South Special Issue on the 2015 Sao Paulo Conference on the Occasion of the FTL's 45th Anniversary Vol. 11, No. 2, Fall 2016 This issue of our Journal of Latin American Theology: Christian Reflections from the Latino South brings together some of the most representative papers from the FTL's 2015 continental conference, "45 Years of the FTL and Contemporary Theological Borders," held in Sao Paulo, Brazil. Building on the milestones of that past, participants faced the challenges of the present and future. Herein, Brazilian theologians and practitioners offer reflections on the FTL's early days, Pentecostal theology, the intended "irrelevance" of the church, the oral nature of the Gospels, and race relations within church and society. Spanish-speaking theologians and practitioners discuss public theology and the joyful dreams of God the Creator. A presentation of theological poetry rounds out this issue.
Long Road to Obsolescence
In the nineteenth century American Presbyterians were among the many Western denominations that sent missionaries to countries around the world. They established foreign Missions as bases in those lands with the intention of starting indigenous churches there. Although the Mission structures were designed to function like scaffolding during the construction of a building, to be removed when the building is complete, the Presbyterian Mission structure in Brazil remained in place for 126 years, long after the Brazilian Presbyterian Church it founded became independent and self-supporting. It was the last of the Presbyterian Missions in the world to be dissolved. The story told here documents the contributions made by North American Presbyterians in Brazil and tackles the missiological question of just why it remained in place so long, and whether it should have.

Fundamentos da teologia histórica
Os grandes historiadores têm em comum a rara habilidade de transformar o passado em história viva. São mestres cuja paixão e cujo conhecimento teórico caminham de mãos dadas revelando o sangue que parece ainda correr nas veias de pessoas e organizações que marcaram época. Ao preparar este volume da coleção Teologia brasileira, Alderi Souza de Matos conseguiu entregar bem mais do que lhe foi pedido. Fundamentos da teologia histórica não somente aponta as principais fases da Igreja Cristã com seus personagens, fatos e suas questões cruciais, como inclui vasta bibliografia em português e índices dos principais temas teológicos que pavimentaram nossos caminhos e descaminhos. Inicialmente pensado para seminaristas, Fundamentos da teologia histórica consegue atender aos anseios de um público mais vasto, pois alia concisão e simplicidade a um conteúdo de grande importância para todo o povo de Deus. Seja bem-vindo. Mais de 2.000 anos de história o aguardam.
Propagandists of the Book
Pedro Feitoza traces the history of Protestantism in Brazil through an analysis of the production and circulation of evangelical texts. Examining a wide range of periodicals, tracts, correspondence, and other archival records and delving into the ideology of religious thinkers and evangelists of the time, Feitoza considers how Protestant veneration of the written word led to a complex infrastructure for the distribution of religious texts and the fostering of literacy in Brazil in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
