Topics covered in the book include the Bible and Latinx, Latin Catholicism in the United States, Muslims in the Latinx U.S. and Latinx Americas, Catholicism in Mexico, and Brazilian Migrational Christianity in North America. Case studies include Oaxacan Religious Transnationalism, Latinx Religion "Nones" and Latinx Conversions. The book is illustrated throughout with over 85 images and each chapter contains suggested further reading. A glossary of key terms and concepts is included. The chapters in this book were first published in the digital collection Bloomsbury Religion in North America.
