Listen "A Study in How Migration Shapes Religion"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, Dr. João Chaves discusses what he learned from years of research on Brazuca Baptist churches, that is, Brazilian American Baptist churches. These congregations reveal the way the experience of migration shapes theology and religious life and raise questions for what the landscape of religious life in America might look going forward. This research is the topic of João's 2021 book with Baylor University Press, Migrational Religion: Context and Creativity in the Latinx Diaspora
