A Future for the Latino Church

Church Leadership & Ministry

“Daniel Rodriguez's A Future for the Latino Church is a truly informative and inspiring book. Based on solid theological, demographic and sociological research from the perspective of the author's own cultural and spiritual pilgrimage, this book presents a compelling argument for reaching U.S.-born Latinos with the gospel message. The carefully selected case studies of highly effective transgenerational Latino churches provide valuable insights as well as a clear sense of direction regarding the future of Latino work in this country. I wholeheartedly recommend this book to everyone who is interested in seeing America's fastest-growing ethnic group become a missionary force in this country and throughout the world.”

Christ Meets Culture

Evangelism & Missions

Foreword

“What is unique about this dissertation is that it engages in scholarly research of key sociological factors in the Brazilian culture that contributed toward the translation of the gospel in that context. This has implications not only for an accurate historical understanding of the manner in which the early Brazilian converts to evangelical Christianity translated the message of the missionaries but also for the manner in which it continues to be translated and transmitted in today's Brazilian cultural context. While this dissertation has a very solid theoretical framework it also has very practical application for contemporary Christian ministry.”
