Migration from Portuguese and Spanish-speaking countries has produced over two hundred Evangelical/Pentecostal congregations in the Nordic region during the early twenty-first century. These churches attract people of diverse backgrounds, demanding ongoing negotiations to keep their distinctive existence. I argue that their existence is owed to shared interpretative practices of the Bible and migration experiences, shaping each other, and forming interpretive communities. Based on an ethnographic investigation, five significant themes characterize Latin congregations in the Nordics as interpretive communities, 1) family worship, 2) incubating churches, 3) intercultural families, 4) transnational connection, and 5) hermeneutics of prophecy. These close-knit, connected, and family-like congregations represent a form of migrant self-theologizing for a Christian witness in a pluralistic Nordic region.

Abstract Based on analysis through the lens of Laclau and Mouffe’s discourse theory, this article demonstrates how the theory is applicable to the complex situation of Christian and Muslim relations in Egypt. It argues that although the discourse of national unity remains dominant after the 2011 Egyptian Revolution, the humanist voice has become more vocal under the spirit of revolutionary fervor. Moreover, after the overthrow of the Muslim Brotherhood’s friendly regime, the religious discourse has been significantly toned down. With an emphasis on more inclusive national unity, an increasing number of Egyptians are inclined towards more fully embracing diversity in their society, paving the way for improving interfaith relations and peaceful coexistence of both faiths. In summary, from the perspective of interfaith relations, this article examines the intertwining of national discourse, religious discourse, and humanist discourse in Egyptian society.
