Our global families
Christians embracing common identity in a changing world
By Todd M. Johnson
In an increasingly interconnected world, Christians face a profound challenge: how to honor their faith while building meaningful relationships across religious and denominational boundaries. Todd M. Johnson, a recognized authority on global Christianity and missions, teams up with Cindy Wu to address this vital question in a comprehensive exploration of our shared humanity.
This insightful work examines the complex dynamics that often create divisions within both the worldwide Christian community and the broader human family. Johnson and Wu demonstrate how these separations can undermine efforts to create positive transformation in our world. Rather than accepting these divisions as inevitable, they offer a thoughtful framework for navigating religious diversity with integrity and purpose.
The authors guide readers through an examination of global Christian identity, showing how believers can remain true to their own spiritual traditions while engaging meaningfully with Christians from different denominations. They extend this principle further, providing practical wisdom for collaborating effectively with people from various religious backgrounds.
Drawing on current research data about global Christianity and world religions, the book presents its insights through accessible tables, graphs, and charts. Each chapter concludes with discussion questions designed to deepen understanding and encourage reflection. This resource equips readers with both knowledge and practical tools for building bridges across religious divides while maintaining their authentic spiritual identity.
