Résumé:Pentecostalism is the fastest-growing stream of Christianity in the world. The real evidence for the significance of Pentecostalism lies in the actual churches built and the number of people attracted.

This work interprets key theological and missiological themes in African Pentecostalism by using material from the lived experiences of the movement itself.
