The review essay starts out with an overview and brief evaluation of A History of Christian Conversion by David W. Kling. It then focuses on a few examples of conversion narratives depicted in this volume and examines these conversion stories in light of contributing factors discussed by Kling as well as in the author’s own model, also touching on Lewis R. Rambo’s work. The essay concludes with a few general thoughts on how Kling’s work could be extended.
