{"product_id":"9780802873187","title":"Story of Latino Protestants in the United States","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book surveys Latino Protestantism in the US from the early 19th  century to the present, considering churches, denominations, and   organizations, with some mention of Latino presence in non-Latino  Protestant churches. It describes Latino Protestants today and the   diversity of the Latino community, including national backgrounds,  cultural adaptation and structural assimilation, linguistic issues,   and ethnic identity maintenance, as well as connections of Latino  Protestantism to Latin American Protestantism and the growing   influence of Latino Protestantism in the US and elsewhere, then the  broader historical context and historiography. Subsequent chapters   cover various periods: Protestant ministry efforts among Latinos in  the 19th-century Southwest from 1848 to 1900; how most Protestant   denominations started Latino ministries throughout the US during the  first part of the 20th century, the beginning of the first   Latino-based denominations, and how racism, deportations, and  tensions between Latino and Anglo Protestants played a role in their   development; the impact of the increase in immigration from the  beginning of World War II on churches and ministry outreach; how   changing laws, a changing world order, and US interventions in  Central America created new migratory patterns, diversities in the   Latino community, and new ministry challenges from the 1960s to the  1980s; the period from 1986 to 2000 in which Latino Protestants were   discovered in the US and the community continued to grow and  expand, as well as the major denominations, movements, and   organizations of the period; how Protestantism has developed a unique  identity in Latin America and among US Protestant Latinos in the   present; and challenges like cultural adaptation and assimilation,  relationships with Latin American Protestants, their place in US   Protestantism, and what Latino Protestants might look like in the  future. Protestant mission work and development in Puerto Rico is   not discussed.
