Book Synopsis Pentecostalism in Apostolic Faith Mission (A.F.M.) by : Benny Hwata
Download or read book Pentecostalism in Apostolic Faith Mission (A.F.M.) written by Benny Hwata and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2011-06 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work, designed for readers pursuing in-depth academic study of Pentecostal theology, traces the origins of the Apostolic Faith Mission (A.F.M.) in Zimbabwe from the Azusa Street revival in Los Angeles, and is based on a dissertation completed for the M.Th. in Systematic Theology degree at UNISA. Pentecostalism spread to South Africa with the founding of Apostolic Faith Mission of South Africa, and in face of stiff resistance from government authorities and established mainline churches, it spontaneously filtered into Zimbabwe. A theological survey of the main tenets of Pentecostalism helps us to discover the Pentecostal tenets adopted in Apostolic Faith Mission, from inception through to Apostolic Faith Mission in Zimbabwe. An overview of the Pentecostal experiences in Apostolic Faith Mission reveals dynamism in Pentecostalism. Four phases of Pentecostal experiences are discerned, resulting in various congregations of the same Church behaving and believing differently. The work also seeks to contribute towards reconciling the diverging Pentecostal views in Apostolic Faith Mission.

Book Synopsis Pentecostalism in Malawi by : Ulf Strohbehn

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pentecostalism in Malawi aims to fill a gap in the historiography of Pentecostalism in Malawi by approaching it from historical and theological perspectives. Mostly constructed from oral sources, local histories and interviews conducted in Malawi, South Africa, Zimbabwe and Germany, the book traces the history of the apostolic faith mission from its ?machona? (migrant labour) beginnings, through the spread of the missionaries, to its position on the social and religious landscape in the postcolonial period. The work concludes with some reflections on why Pentecostalism has been so successful in Africa.
Book Synopsis Celebrating the Past, Present and Future of British and Irish Practical Theology by : Andrew P. Rogers
Download or read book Celebrating the Past, Present and Future of British and Irish Practical Theology written by Andrew P. Rogers and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-05-13 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Practical theology has become a well-established academic discipline in Britain and Ireland over the past half century, evidenced in its chairs, journals, books, conferences, and contribution to transformed practices. The British and Irish Association for Practical Theology (BIAPT) and its journal, Practical Theology, has had a significant role to play in the story of the discipline. This volume is a celebration of practical theology in Britain and Ireland in all its inventiveness and variety on the occasion of BIAPT’s twenty-fifth birthday. It offers an account of its roots in its emergence from the Scottish Pastoral Association in the 1960s, its trajectories established in the journal Contact/Practical Theology and how human experience has been a constant companion on the journey. The book considers a range of methodologies including engagement with popular culture, public theology, the arts, and the importance of conversation. It explores new shoots in the discipline that consider how sexuality, ethnicity, and different religious traditions may be addressed within practical theology. It concludes by asking how it may be fruitful in the future, by reflecting on the challenges ahead, not least the ubiquity of ignorance. This is a landmark text in the unfolding of British and Irish practical theology in all its glorious distinctiveness, which promises to be a major contribution to international debate in the discipline. The chapters in this book were first published in Practical Theology.
Book Synopsis The Azusa St Mission & Revival by : Cecil M. Robeck
Download or read book The Azusa St Mission & Revival written by Cecil M. Robeck and published by HarperChristian + ORM. This book was released on 2017-07-25 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Azusa Street Mission and Revival, Cecil M. Robeck, Jr. brings to bear expertise from decades of focused study in church history to reveal the captivating story of the Apostolic Faith Mission in Los Angeles, which became known as the Azusa Street Mission. Sometimes the largest blaze begins with the tiniest spark. At the dawn of the twentieth century, William J. Seymour, the son of Louisiana slaves, began meeting with a tiny congregation in a two-story wooden building in downtown Los Angeles. What began as a spontaneous gathering of believers quickly grew into a passionate revival and renewal of the work of the Holy Spirit. The movement spread at breathtaking speed. With little more than a printing press, a trolley stop, and a powerful message, the spiritual fire emanating from the Apostolic Faith Mission on Azusa Street rapidly crossed strict cultural and national borders—into Mexico, Canada, Britain, Scandinavia, Africa, India, and China. Led by William J. Seymour, the revival became the catalyst for the modern Pentecostal movement. Today, the more than 500 million Christians who identify as Pentecostal or Charismatic can trace the roots of their faith to this humble beginning at Azusa Street. The Azusa Street Mission and Revival tells the full story of how this uniquely diverse and inclusive group grew into a powerful movement that forever changed the landscape of Christianity.
Book Synopsis Women, Religion and Leadership in Zimbabwe, Volume 2 by : Molly Manyonganise
Download or read book Women, Religion and Leadership in Zimbabwe, Volume 2 written by Molly Manyonganise and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2023-04-12 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Zimbabwe has invested in women’s emancipation and leadership while articulating a strong Pan-Africanist ideology, providing a valuable entry point into understanding the dynamics relating to women’s leadership in Africa. It is also characterised by radical religious pluralism, thereby facilitating an appreciation of the impact of religion on women’s leadership in Africa more generally. This volume reflects on the role of Zimbabwean women in religio-cultural leadership, with a specific focus on roles within religious organizations. It begins by examining Zimbabwean church women’s leadership roles in long established faith communities. The chapters then hone in on the emergence of churches or ministries founded by women in Zimbabwe, starting from the pre-colonial era and advancing through the last forty years of independence. Hence, the book offers a comprehensive assessment of the challenges and opportunities women in leadership face in religious institutions in the country, before exploring the impact of the pandemic on the ability of women to lead. It will make a major contribution to the advancement of scholarship of gender and leadership in emerging markets.
Download or read book Heaven Below written by Grant Wacker and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2003-04-30 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this lively history of the rise of pentecostalism in the United States, Grant Wacker gives an in-depth account of the religious practices of pentecostal churches as well as an engaging picture of the way these beliefs played out in daily life.The core tenets of pentecostal belief—personal salvation, Holy Ghost baptism, divine healing, and anticipation of the Lord’s imminent return—took root in the first quarter of the twentieth century. Wacker examines the various aspects of pentecostal culture, including rituals, speaking in tongues, the authority of the Bible, the central role of Jesus in everyday life, the gifts of prophecy and healing, ideas about personal appearance, women’s roles, race relations, attitudes toward politics and the government. Tracking the daily lives of pentecostals, and paying close attention to the voices of individual men and women, Wacker is able to identify the reason for the movement’s spectacular success: a demonstrated ability to balance idealistic and pragmatic impulses, to adapt distinct religious convictions in order to meet the expectations of modern life.More than twenty million American adults today consider themselves pentecostal. Given the movement’s major place in American religious life, the history of its early years—so artfully told here—is of central importance.

Book Synopsis Pentecostal Churches in Transition by : Shane Clifton
Download or read book Pentecostal Churches in Transition written by Shane Clifton and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2009-05-20 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The global growth of Pentecostal movements during the course of the twentieth century has been widely documented although, to date, there has been little written on their developing ecclesiology. After making the case for a concrete rather than idealised approach to ecclesiology, this book describes and analyses the transitions that have framed the ways in which Australian Pentecostals have understood church life and mission. From a loosely knit faith missions movement, to congregational free church structures, to the so-called apostolic models of mega-churches, Australian pentecostalism stands as a microcosmos of ecclesial developments that have occurred throughout the world. This book, therefore, provides a means of reflecting upon what has been gained and lost in the process of ecclesiological change.

Download or read book Initial Evidence written by Gary B. McGee and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2008-01-01 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This is a superb collection of articles on the central issue of Pentecostalism--speaking in tongues as the initial evidence for the baptism in the Holy Spirit. The articles, written by both Pentecostals and non-Pentecostals, are historically informative, scholarly, irenic in spirit, ecumenical in treatment, and wide-ranging in interest. Here is an opportunity for both Pentecostals and non-Pentecostals to become better informed about Pentecostalism. While offering a solid defense of traditional Pentecostalism, the book also offers candid assessments that take a different view. This book should become a must for those who want to understand both historic and present-day Pentecostalism."--Gordon D. Fee, Professor Emeritus of New Testament, Regent College"The most complete and scholarly analytical treatment of glossolalia as 'initial evidence' of the baptism in the Holy Spirit that has yet appeared. Both the historical and theological sections support and challenge the distinctive Pentecostal teaching on the subject of tongues."--Vinson Synan, Former Chairman, North American Renewal Service Committee". . . a remarkably diverse collection of essays that thoughtfully probe the distinctive which has come to characterize the Pentecostal Movement, namely: speaking in an unknown tongue. . . . Irenic in tone, the volume is a must for scholars, pastors, and lay persons of all theological perspectives who desire to enter into dialogue in this area of debate."--D. William Faupel, Professor of the History of Christianity, Wesley Theological Seminary"Initial Evidence, edited by Gary McGee, is a substantive contribution to the study of American Pentecostalism. The historical overviews in it are of tremendous value, particularly for newcomers to Pentecostalism, who may lack a historical grounding in the movement. Exegetical essays, such as that by Donald Johns, will challenge readers who are comfortable with current hermeneutical models to rethink the biblical text, and it offers great promise for more contributions to Pentecostal exegesis."--Howard M. Ervin, Professor Emeritus of Old Testament, Graduate School of Theology, Oral Roberts University
