"In Australian Pentecostal and Charismatic Movements: Arguments from the Margins, Rocha, Hutchinson and Openshaw argue that Australia has made and still makes important contributions to how Pentecostal and charismatic Christianities have developed worldwide. This edited volume fills a critical gap in two important scholarly literatures. The first is the Australian literature on religion, in which the absence of the charismatic and Pentecostal element tends to reinforce now widely debunked notions of Australia as lacking the religious tendencies of old Europe. The second is the emerging transnational literature on Pentecostal and Charismatic movements. This book enriches our understanding not only of how these movements spread worldwide but also how they are indigenised and grow new shoots in very diverse contexts".

"Research on Pentecostal and Charismatic Christianity has increased dramatically in recent decades, and a diverse range of disciplines has begun to address a range of elements of these movements. Yet, there exists very little understanding of Pentecostal theology, and it is not uncommon to encounter stereotypes and misperceptions. Addressing this gap in current research, The Routledge Handbook of Pentecostal Theology is an outstanding reference source to the key topics, challenges and debates in this growing field of study and is the first collection of its kind on this subject. Comprising over forty chapters written by a team of international contributors, the Handbook is divided into five parts: Contextualizing Pentecostal Theology, Sources, Theological Method, Doctrines and Practices, Conversations and Challenges. These sections take the reader through a comprehensive introduction to what Pentecostals believe and how they practice their faith. Looking at issues such hermeneutics, worship, eschatology and Feminism, among many others, within Pentecostalism, they allow a nuanced and global picture of Pentecostal theology to emerge. The Routledge Handbook of Pentecostal Theology is essential reading for students and researchers in Pentecostal Studies, World Christianity and Theology as well as scholars working in contemporary Religious Studies"--

Latin America, the United States of America, religion, and politics are ingredients of a brew with considerable explosive power. The four terms denote factors in a complex and, for the most part, violently intertwined relationship. Historically, this relation has been shaped primarily by the Protestant mission in Latin America and its Pan-American objectives. Yet, this mission now belongs to the past. The once American religiosity of the missionaries has taken different and more charismatic forms under the conflicting conditions of life in Latin America and today is shaped in particular by the class antagonisms of the subcontinent. However, this does not mean that some evangelical organizations do not continue to represent political interests of their Northern neighbor, or that vice versa,the political religiosity of the South does not contribute to ideological struggles in the United States, either through Liberation Theology in the 1980s, or today through the solidarity with Latin American migrants. The present book visualises the logic of the inter-American entanglements by tracing and interpreting exemplary developments and conflicts, framing the narrative plot between two important religious events in 1916 and 2016.

Der Missionserfolg des Pentekostalismus verdankt sich nicht zuletzt der zentralen Rolle, die Frauen dort spielen. Doch worin besteht die Attraktivität der Pfingstbewegung für Frauen und was sind ihre Auswirkungen? Nora Kurzewitz geht der Innenperspektive pentekostaler Frauen in Costa Rica nach und zeigt, dass für diese insbesondere die Heilung psychischen Leids eine existenzielle, transformative Erfahrung darstellt. Die Studie enthält relevante Erkenntnisse für Theolog*innen, Religionswissenschaftler*innen und alle, die sich mit Auswirkungen konservativer religiöser Bewegungen auf Frauen beschäftigen. Das theologische Konzept der Vergebung erweist sich auch aus psychologischer Perspektive als anschlussfähig. »Insgesamt handelt es sich um einen äußerst lesenswerten Beitrag zur Pentekostalismus- und Genderforschung, der etablierte, jedoch problematische Verständnisse von Agency im Zusammenhang mit der Genderdebatte herausfordert.« Ulrike Sallandt, https://www.glopent.net, 20.01.2021 Besprochen in: www.lehrerbibliothek.de, 19.04.2020, Thomas Bernhard
