| Zusammenfassung: | Christianity has played an integral part of Sudanese life through colonialism, postcolonialism, civil wars, and secession. Through it all, writers from a variety of disciplinary and denominational backgrounds have recorded the diverse experiences of Christian individuals and organizations.

Given religion's central role in Sudan's recent past, such a task is necessary to understand its possible futures. |
