Author Rick Waldrop Posted on April 12, 2019March 7, 2019

Global Pentecostalism – Of, For & By the Poor: Social Action

Author Rick Waldrop Posted on April 5, 2019March 7, 2019

For most Pentecostals, social responsibility has been primarily limited—with some notable exceptions—to the spheres of mutual help and some forms of social and material assistance to neighbors in need. But in other situations, Pentecostal efforts at social transformation has led to the defense of human rights and other forms of social and political activism.

Global Pentecostalism – Of, For & By the Poor: The Option of the Poor

Author Rick Waldrop Posted on March 29, 2019March 7, 2019

It has perhaps become something of a simplistic quip or cliché, but the observation has been made by several authors[10] that in Latin America during the 1960s and 1970s, while liberation theology there developed its “preferential option for the poor”, the poor opted for the Pentecostal churches.

Global Pentecostalism – Of, For & By the Poor: History & Contexts

Author Rick Waldrop Posted on March 15, 2019March 7, 2019

In any case, the argument can be made, with clear statistical support, that the majority of Pentecostals are still poor in the Majority World where the vast majority of Pentecostals reside today. That would mean that, globally, Pentecostals are strongest among the impoverished masses. In other words, the majority of Pentecostals today are poor.

Embracing Pentecostalisms

Author Alex Mayfield Posted on March 11, 2019March 7, 2019

Many people in Spirit-filled communities can feel like they don’t belong. They identify as Spirit-filled, yet there own experience doesn’t seem to match up with those of their community. They might feel like they don’t shout enough, dance right, tongue-talk enough, or vote right. Truthfully, this experience can be a gut-wrenching crisis of identity. “If these people are Pentecostal… then what am I?”

Global Pentecostalism – Of, For & By the Poor: First Things

Author Rick Waldrop Posted on March 8, 2019March 7, 2019

Pentecostal churches are not “sects,” “steered by U.S. capital and the CIA”. They have sprung up out of the ground everywhere, like mushrooms. They are an independent popular movement of the poor. They have something to say to the whole of Christendom on earth, and have liberating experiences to pass on to all men and women.
