Accommodating Secularization

What is it about?

This study looks at how Pentecostals approached missionary work in Uruguay, South America's least "Christianized" country, during the tumultuous 1960s. It suggests that even though missionaries saw the context as a challenge, they chose to accommodate secularization instead of pushing back against it. They aligned with the secular government's vision of private religion, meaning they focused on personal transformations rather than trying to influence politics or public life in the country.
