History of Vietnamese Christianity

A History of Vietnamese Christianity is a landmark achievement—the first comprehensive account of Christianity’s four-hundred-year journey in Vietnam. Moving beyond colonial-era myths, this ground-breaking volume uncovers the Church’s Iberian origins, French influences, and the vital, often overlooked, contributions of women and lay believers. It also highlights the witness of Protestant and Evangelical communities and the vibrant faith of the Vietnamese Christian diaspora. Meticulously researched and collaboratively written by Vietnamese and international scholars, this volume opens a new chapter in understanding Vietnam’s religious, cultural, and intellectual heritage.
