The editors and contributors to this volume offer perspectives stating that such assessments are important, especially in light of the growth of the Renewal movement in the two-thirds world. Further, assessment of the role of Renewal Christianity's socio-economic practices may illuminate trends in the global economy that have broader implications and consequences.
