Welcome
to the Center for the Study of Global Christianity at Gordon-Conwell
Theological Seminary.
Our
purpose is to serve faculty, students, alumni, religion scholars,
church leaders, missiologists and journalists seeking information
and analysis on the global Christian movement by providing resources
such as the World
Christian Database (WCD).
The
online World Christian Database (WCD) includes detailed information
on 34,000 Christian denominations and on religions in every country
of the world. In addition, extensive data is available on 238 countries
and 13,000 ethnolinguistic peoples, as well as data on 7,000 cities
and 3,000 provinces. Statistics in the online WCD represent a significant
update of the data published in WCE/WCT in 2001. The WCD represents
the core of the data supporting the World Christian Encyclopedia
(WCE) and World Christian Trends (WCT).
