| Summary: | In this article we show how gender is a useful category of analysis for students of North American pentecostal history. First, we provide a working definition of the term gender (a term with a plethora of meanings!).

Finally, we reflect on the potential benefit of using gender to recount a variety of pentecostal histories, both North American and beyond. |
