When he asked someone "How did you become a Christian?" they would usually give a long and fluent answer, a narrative that had been told with minor or major variations many times before. This book grows out of these conversion narratives: it is a study of Christians in Bhaktapur, and of the Christian church in Nepal. It seeks to explain why Nepali Christianity is growing so rapidly, and to depict the lives of individual Christians."--Publisher's website. 650 0 $a Christianity $z Bhaktapur. $z Bhaktapur. 650 0 $a Suffering $x Christianity. $x Christianity. 650 0 $a Hope $x Christianity. $x Christianity. 650 0 $a Newar (Nepalese people) $x Religion. 651 0 $a Bhaktapur (Nepal) $x Religion. 650 7 $a Evangelikale Bewegung $2 gnd $0 (DE-588)4153245-4 650 7 $a ReligioÌser Wandel $2 gnd $0 (DE-588)4761239-3 650 7 $a Konversion $g Religion $2 gnd $0 (DE-588)4127377-1 650 7 $a Hinduismus $2 gnd $0 (DE-588)4024955-4 650 7 $a Christentum $2 gnd $0 (DE-588)4010074-1 650 7 $a Biografische Methode $2 gnd $0 (DE-588)4732998-1 650 7 $a Trauma $2 gnd $0 (DE-588)4060748-3 650 7 $a NewaÌr $2 gnd $0 (DE-588)4101166-1 651 7 $a Nepal $2 gnd $0 (DE-588)4041612-4 651 7 $a Bhaktapur $2 gnd $0 (DE-588)4275150-0 650 7 $a Christianity. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00859599 650 7 $a Hope $x Christianity. $x Christianity. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00960079 650 7 $a Newar (Nepalese people) $x Religion. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01036956 650 7 $a Religion. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01093763 650 7 $a Suffering $x Christianity. $x Christianity. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01137163 651 7 $a Nepal $z Bhaktapur. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01212559 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231020022916.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=601246B2462211E9A3F20F6897128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
