French Baptist History: Historical slides and Thematic slides
As you already know, I did study French Baptist history for my Ph.D (defended in Sorbonne EPHE in 1998). I've decided to review (and improve) two old Powerpoint presentations.
The first one is historical and chronological. It explains the four steps of French Baptist implantation, from 1800s to 1950s.
The second one is a thematic presentation, using both sociology and history, in order to highlight the social distinctives of Baptist churches (and individuals) in French society.
These two slideshows are in French. They may require some effort to be read and understood but the effort is worth it!
The first slideshow can be seen here : Link to historical slides
The second slideshow can be seen here : Link to thematic slides

Immigration impact on an old Parisian congregation: a case study
As migrants flow in increasing numbers in "old Europe", changing forever social and cultural landscapes, more and more studies are currently undergone about new multicultural and immigrant churches.
Although all Christian traditions are impacted by immigration, Evangelicalism is at the frontline, as warm, grassroot and zealous Evangelical congregations appear more attractive to migrants than other more traditional religious forms.

I juste received an email from Jason Zuidema (Concordia University) and I want to share the good news: a manuscript on French Protestantism in Canada has been officially accepted by Brill.
Henry Gooren, the general editor, has officially accepted the manuscript into the 'Religion in the Americas' series.
