It tells the story of a community of faith that is often overlooked in the region. The authors include leading scholars of religion, theology, and politics from Botswana and Zimbabwe. The insights they present will help readers understand the place of Pentecostal Christianity in this land of many religions. The chapters detail a history of the movement from its inception to the present. Chapters focus on specific Pentecostal churches, general doctrine of the movement, and the movement?s contribution to the country. The writing is deeply informed and features deep historical, theological, and sociological analysis throughout. Readers will also learn about the socio-political and economic relevance of the faith in Zimbabwe as well as the theoretical and methodological implications raised by the Pentecostalisation of society. The volume will serve as a resource book both for teaching and for those doing research on various aspects of the Zimbabwean society past, present, and future. It will be a good resource for those in schools and university and college departments of religious studies, theology, history, politics, sociology, social anthropology, and related studies. Over and above academic and research readers, the book will also be very useful to government policy makers, non-governmental organizations, and civic societies who have the Church as an important stakeholder. 606 $aReligion and sociology 606 $aCulture 606 $aEvangelicalism 606 $aReligion and Society$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1A8020 606 $aSociology of Culture$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/X22100 606 $aEvangelicalism and Pentecostalism$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1A3110 615 0$aReligion and sociology. 615 0$aCulture. 615 0$aEvangelicalism. 615 14$aReligion and Society. 615 24$aSociology of Culture. 615 24$aEvangelicalism and Pentecostalism. 676 $a201.7 702 $aTogarasei$b Lovemore$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300573903321 996 $aAspects of Pentecostal Christianity in Zimbabwe$92017397 997 $aUNINA
