Every Sunday, millions of Christians worldwide gather for public worship. They may use different languages, sing distinct melodies, and perform rituals according to different traditions and in diverse styles, but there is a common element among all Christians: the practice of worship. In this book, eight Latin American Christian scholars reflect on contextual worship practices using various disciplinary lenses and methodologies. Each contributor to this book observes, describes, and interprets worship through Latin American eyes. These authors are women and men from different countries, are experts in varied academic fields, and represent a range of Protestant Christian traditions. They bring diverse religious backgrounds and worship experiences to this work. As our world becomes increasingly interconnected on a global scale, this book provides an opportunity to listen to underrepresented voices and develop a more nuanced and multifaceted understanding of worship beyond familiar settings.

Reviews for Worship Through Latin American Eyes

""Responding to the rapid growth of Christianity in Central and South America, this edited volume by María Eugenia Cornou and Noel A. Snyder expands worship studies by engaging voices from the global church from multiple disciplines. A vital resource for anyone committed to cross-cultural exchange in worship studies."" --Gerardo Martí, author of Worship Across the Racial Divide: Religious Music and the Multiracial Congregation ""Worship Through Latin American Eyes affirms Latino worship by honoring its cultural richness, communal identity, and embodied spirituality. It speaks to the lived realities of Latino communities, validating their rhythms, testimonies, and theological insights. It is a groundbreaking contribution to global worship studies. The work uplifts Latino worship as contextually relevant and theologically profound--worthy of shaping the global conversation on liturgy and justice, inviting us to participate in an inclusive and prophetic liturgical future."" --Elizabeth Conde-Frazier, Practical Theologian ""This collection of insightful essays curated by María Eugenia Cornou and Noel A. Snyder is a must-read monograph if one seeks to understand the sitz im leben of a people whose lingua franca is Spanish or Portuguese and their Christian spirituality and worship practice."" --Lim, Swee Hong 林瑞峰, Deer Park Associate Professor of Sacred Music, Emmanuel College of Victoria University, University of Toronto, Canada
