    • Abstract:
      An interview with historian Mark Noll of the University of Notre Dame in South Bend, Indiana is presented. When asked about the common misunderstandings about the influence of U.S. Christianity in missions abroad, he mentions the perception of a malevolent manipulation of the Christian world by Western Christianity. He explains his argument about the need to study the style of Christianity practiced by the U.S. in order to understand indigenous Christianity. He describes the changes in missions strategy in the U.S. and other countries.
