Pinsebevægelsen = verdens fremtid
Og hvordan går det så i det underudviklede land Africa?
http://www.oup.com/us/catalog/general/subject/ReligionTheology/HistoryofChristianity/Modern/?view=usa&ci=9780195340006
Today, about 107 million Africans are Pentecostals -- and the numbers continue to rise.

Hvor udbredes læren om Jesus og tages imod med “kyshånd” I kærlighed og glæde? i de underudviklede lande med befolkninger der ingen decideret skolegang har haft.
Læg lige mærke til, at jeg skriver ”har haft” for det ændres naturligvis i takt med kærligheden.
Global Pentecostalism and Charismatic Christianity in all its diversity is the fastest expanding religious movement in the world today.
Allan Anderson, a former Pentecostal minister and a leading authority on global Pentecostalism, aims to make more visible the 'non-western' nature of Pentecostalism without overlooking the importance of the movement emanating from North America.
Offering an innovative interpretation of Pentecostalism, he takes seriously "the contributions of the Majority World to its development" and, concentrating on its history and theology, reflects on the movement's development and significance throughout the world.
Anderson also examines those theological issues that helped form a distinctive spirituality and how this relates to different peoples and their cultures. Finally, Anderson discusses the development of Pentecostal and Charismatic Christianity in the different countries from its origins at the beginning of the twentieth century to its theological emphases in the present, together with the impact of the processes of globalization.

Så, vejen til udvikling og velstand i den 3. verden? Den er totalt afhængig af Pentacostel movement.

Notre Dame University,
the University of Chicago
and Union College are among a string of educational institutions selected to receive grant money to conduct research on the growing Pentecostal-charismatic movement.
The Center for Religion and Civic Culture at the University of Southern California (USC)
will award five centers and 16 individual scholars and their teams a total of $3.5 million for research.
-----------------------------
USC's research initiative is supported by a grant from the John Templeton Foundation.
The university received close to 500 applications from researchers around the world.
Kimon Sargeant, vice president of human services for the foundation, said Pentecostalism is "one of the most dynamic and potentially transformative religious movements" in this century.
"The researchers selected for the Pentecostal and Charismatic Research Initiative have a unique opportunity to help scholars and the broader public understand how this movement-inspired by powerful worship and religious experience-is changing the cultural, social and religious landscape around the world," Kamon said.
---------------------------------
Grant recipients, who represent educational institutions in 23 countries,
will conduct research in Asia,Africa, Latin America or the former Soviet Union.
-------------------------------------------------
Philip Jenkins, professor of history and religious studies at Pennsylvania State University, said
observers have recognized the significance of Pentecostal and charismatic Christianity for years.
But he said the movement has never received the recognition it deserves.
"The topic has never received the attention it deserves in the academy as a whole, and especially in teaching," Jenkins said.
Grant applications were evaluated by an interdisciplinary team of scholars and are awarded on a competitive basis.
Recipients of regional center grants can receive up to $500,000 over a two-year period and recipients of individual grants can receive up to $100,000 in funding.
