Theology and mission are not developed in a vacuum - they are forged in the lived experiences of believers, including those who suffer for their faith. Therefore, Christians must be equipped to address the challenges of persecution, discrimination, and harassment in both historical and contemporary contexts. This anthology brings together scholars from all major theological disciplines to deepen our understanding of religious persecution.
