Philip Jenkins writes history and religious studies about global Christianity, demographic change and the ways religion moves across regions over time. The Next Christendom argues that Christianity’s demographic centre has shifted towards Africa, Asia and Latin America, while The Lost History of Christianity reconstructs major Christian communities that once flourished across the Middle East and Asia. Jesus Wars examines early doctrinal conflicts, and Climate, Catastrophe, and Faith connects environmental disruption with religious change across history. Jenkins’s books are broad, comparative and argument-led, bringing population, geography and institutional history into the same frame. He is most useful to readers of global Christianity, church history, religion and demography, and comparative religious history. Read more Less
