Sommario/riassunto

Charismatic pastors, fast-paced worship sessions, inspirational but shallow theology, and large congregations - these are just some of the associated traits of Pentecostal megachurches. But what lies beneath the veneer of glitz? What are their congregations like? How did they grow so quickly? How have they managed to negotiate local and transnational challenges? This book seeks to understand the growth and popularity of independent Pentecostal megachurches in Southeast



Asia. Using an ethnographic approach, the chapters examine Pentecostal megachurches in Malaysia, Indonesia, the Philippines, and Singapore. Each chapter dwells on the development of the megachurch set against the specific background of the country's politics and history.

Sommario/riassunto

The essays deal with seemingly secondary topics of technical-historical research, from material histories of technology nostalgia, the mechanization of the sky, machine sensitivities such as balancing and the stress of the pilots, an interpretation of the breakdown, the luxury economy of the horses, to considerations about a technical history of the body and new strategies for collecting everyday technology in museums, personal and methodical new approaches are interlocked.
