Summary: | This paper seeks to reiterate the social nature of Pentecostal spirituality. On the one hand, Pentecostals have done very well stressing their evangelistic mission as intrinsic to Spirit Baptism. On the other hand, they have often neglected the importance of issues of social justice. Yet, Latin American Pentecostals have been calling for and embodying an integral Pentecostal spirituality that includes justice within the mission of the Spirit’s mission in the world. Focusing on various contemporary challenges raised by globalization in Latin America, the paper will present how Latina/o Pentecostal theologians are challenging the Pentecostal movement to engage the public sphere integrally. |
