How and why is Christianity's center of gravity shifting to the developing world? To understand this rapidly growing phenomenon, Donald E.

The result is this vividly detailed book which provides the most comprehensive information available on Pentecostalism, the fastest-growing religion in the world. Rich with scenes from everyday life, the book dispel many |
