  • Situating the ‘Crisis of Representation’ in Ethnographic Approaches to Theology and Working Toward Community-Centered, Dialogic Approaches

    Open AccessKristy Nabhan-Warren, Kristy Nabhan‐warren et al.ARTICLEEcclesial Practices2021

    In this article we unpack the significance of the ‘crisis in representation’ in the field of anthropology for ethnographic approaches to academic theology. The article summarizes and draws connections among other works in this themed issue and presents possibilities for moving forwards with ethnographic theologies that attune carefully to issues of representation. Attending to questions of method, identity, and ethnographic writing, it lifts up s…

  • The Story of Latino Protestants in the United States

    Open AccessKristy Nabhan-Warren, Kristy Nabhan‐warrenARTICLEJournal of American History2019

    The Story of Latino Protestants in the United States is a timely book indeed. Published amid a U.S.-sanctioned detaining of immigrant and refugee children of Latino/a descent at the nation's border with Mexico, this book is important on many levels. Juan Francisco Martínez provides a historically detailed story of the nineteenth-century origins and vagaries of U.S. Latino/a Protestantisms and unravels the braided transnational threads and relatio…

  • Playing for God

    Kristy Nabhan-Warren, Kristy Nabhan‐warrenARTICLESociology of Religion2016

    Playing for God is a finely crafted sociology of evangelical sports ministry and Christian female athletes who participate in and help promote a particular strand of Christianity. Annie Blazer’s work is both timely and telling, and it shows how evangelical and conservative Christian women athletes experience religion on the field or court and in the rest of their everyday lives. Blazer is a gifted ethnographer of religion who succeeds in capturin…

  • Migrating Faith

    Kristy Nabhan‐warrenARTICLEJournal of American History2016Cited by: 5

    Drawing on oral histories, ethnomusicology, and numerous postcolonial theories, Daniel Ramírez has produced a study that offers fresh interpretations to Latino/a religious studies and American religious history. In Migrating Faith the author asserts that studies of Pentecostalism in the Americas, and of Latino/a Pentecostalism more specifically, tend to focus on worshippers' corporeality and embodiment. While he lauds such a focus, or what he pre…

    Open AccessKristy Nabhan-Warren, Kristy Nabhan‐warrenARTICLEJournal of Jesuit Studies2015

    Reading Emma Anderson's most recent book, The Death and Afterlife of the North American Martyrs, was at once pleasurable and daunting.Pleasurable because Anderson is one of the most gifted storytellers I have encountered, and daunting because of the extremely high bar she raises for academics.What Anderson has accomplished in this book is stunning.She has written a book that is on one level about the ebbs, flows, and rise of the cult of the eight…

    In this article, I examine anthropological and phenomenological theories and scholarship that recognize our bodies and our interlocutor's bodies as texts that we can read to better understand ourselves and the lifeworlds our interlocutors inhabit. Drawing on my own ethnographic research and taking my cue from phenomenologists, I argue that Religious Studies ethnographers must look to their bodies as well as their interlocutors' bodies as sources …
