Description: "After introducing the overall missiological theme of the beginning and expansion of Latin American Protestantism, Westmeier explores definitions and research methods, which in the end compel him to analyze the Protestantism of Latin America in the context of the ongoing experiences of the Latin American protestantes themselves; that is, "from the perspective of conflict," and to use the terms Protestantism, Evangelical, and Pentecostalism interchangeably."--BOOK JACKET.
