The book explores the complex relationship between global Christianity and local practices through an ethnographic study of Pairundu, a remote village in Papua New Guinea. It highlights the tensions that arise as the community transitions from Catholicism to a charismatic movement, and eventually to the radical Seventh-Day Adventist Church, particularly among the youth. By examining these shifts, the study sheds light on the broader social and cultural dynamics that fuel religious conflicts globally, offering insights into the impact of globalization and modernization on local faith practices.
