Philip Wingeier-Rayo is Associate Professor of Religion at Pfeiffer University where he teaches in the areas of theology, missions, and cultural anthropology. He is the author of Cuban Methodism (Dolphins & Orchids, 2006).
""Based on his varied experience in Latin America and informed by the vast literature on emergent forms of Christianity in Central and South America, Wingeier-Rayo has undertaken a careful study of neighboring examples of what are sometimes seen as opposed forms of Christianity: the base communities associated with Liberation Theology and the Pentecostal movement. Refusing facile dichotomies and generalizations this study will be of considerable help to anyone who wants to understand contemporary Christianity."" --Theodore W. Jennings Jr. Professor of Biblical and Constructive Theology Chicago Theological Seminary ""Dr. Wingeier-Rayo brings a wealth of experience in cross-cultural ministry to bear on a topic of truly global significance. His close analysis of two very distinctive traditions of faith, in one particular context, shatters stereotypes and celebrates diverse gifts. We need more contextual studies like this one to open our eyes to the kaleidoscopic nature of God's reign."" --Paul Chilcote Professor of Historical Theology & Wesley Studies Ashland Theological Seminary "An abundance of footnotes and a solid bibliography lends the readable book for students and teachers of Latin American studies, missionary movements, and Catholicism among Hispanics in Latin America as well as the United States." -- Paul E. Pierson, as reviewed in Missiology
