This book exposes the profound impact American evangelicalism is having on the religious lives of contemporary Christian immigrants, and the pressures immigrant churches face to incorporate evangelical worship styles, often at the expense of maintaining their ethnic character and support systems.

This book shows that members...

"I grew up in Czechoslovakia during the Communist era," says Kollar, "and with the motto, with the Soviet Union for all Eternity" which has been one of my few experiences with eternity...
