Description: This book examines the diverse expressions of Christianity in Nairobi, a vital centre of a new global Christian pluralism, where 85% of inhabitants claim allegiance to one of the thousands of different Christian churches.
Brief description: Kyama Mugambi is Assistant Professor of World Christianity at the Yale Divinity School, USA.
Review Quotes: As lively and fast-paced as the city itself, this book introduces the Christian people, religious movements and church buildings that contribute to life in East Africa's economic hub. Shaw and Mugambi bring to the page the immediacy of varied and vibrant scenes without neglecting the contentious and challenging aspects of contemporary Christianity in Nairobi.
