Pentecostalism is the fastest growing religious movement of our time.
The unexpected birth of the modern Pentecostal movement at the doorsteps
of the twentieth century is as perplexing as its continuing existence
and unprecedented expansion worldwide. Once marginalized from public
discourse, Pentecostals have now entered into mainstream culture,
religion, politics, academia, and social action. However, the
unprecedented growth of Pentecostalism in all its diversity has led to
characterizations ripe with platitudes, stereotypes, and
misrepresentations.
