Produktbeschreibung

Hispanics are embracing the gospel in record numbers, swelling to well over 150 million believers today. In light of such unprecedented growth, evangelicals need resources to better understand their new Latino brothers and sisters. Then Came Hispangelicals delivers.

This much-needed primer surveys the history, philosophical antecedents, cultural developments, and religious heritage of the Hispanic world. Far from blind to the potential challenges, Dr. Rudolph Gonzalez proffers a thoughtful and balanced evaluation of Hispanic cultures from a Christ-centered, evangelical perspective.

Without apology, he makes a case for the gospel as the only historical message with the power to resolve the Latino's perpetual search for a satisfying identity.

Autorenporträt

Dr. Rudolph (Rudy) Gonzalez was born in Chicago, but raised in Monterrey, Mexico. Though he was born an American, Spanish was his first language. Today Dr. Gonzalez is Professor of New Testament at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. He jests that students of his will likely learn biblical Greek with a Spanish accent. In 1974, at the young age of twenty-one, Rudy surrendered to God's call. He attended the Criswell College in Dallas, where his interest in biblical studies was sparked. Rudy pursued studies at Southwestern (MDiv), Princeton Theological Seminary (ThM), and Baylor University (PhD in New Testament). Over the years he has taught and preached in numerous churches, schools, seminaries, and denominational functions throughout the US and abroad. He is thoroughly comfortable in both English and Spanish, having published in both languages. Rudy enjoys reading and is married to his querida, Virginia. They have one son, Rudolf Uriah.
