How does a narrow understanding of conversion sit with the central, transforming and liberating tenets of Black British theology? In what ways does conversion to a Eurocentric version of Christianity challenge the definitions of blackness and identities other than White? How much of conversion is about setting "us" against "them" and vice versa, and about "my God is better and greater than yours"? Can we find another kind of language in our discourse about Christian conversion? These are some of the questions around which this essay seeks to critically explore Christian conversion from personal narratives and Caribbean and Black British perspectives
