Description
Summary:In the 34 years since earning a Ph.D. in sociology from the University of California, Berkeley, Rodney Stark has written almost a book a year (27 at last count). One of them resulted in a Pulitzer Prize nomination (The Rise of Christianity), and “distinguished book awards” dot his resume for many of the others. In a field where the scholarly article is as important as the book, he has written, often with colleagues, over 140.All of his work is interesting. Some of his more recent work, however, on the origins and growth of Christianity from a sociological perspective, is of special interest to missiologists. Missiology asked him to respond to some questions about his work and Christian mission.
