Abstract This article draws on select social science scholarship about Asian American evangelicalism (AAE) specifically and Asian American Christianity more generally to sketch a brief history of AAE since the 1990s. Its historical approach reveals the importance of generation, ethnicity, and region in shaping the questions scholars have asked and the topics they have studied.
