RT Article T1 ‘I Feel the Presence of God in My Tears’: On the Theological Contribution to the Research of Latin American Pentecostalism JF Exchange VO 44 IS 2 SP 177 OP 200 A1 Bom, Klaas 1967- LA English PB Brill YR 2015 UL https://ixtheo.de/Record/156225250X AB This paper presents the results of a field research among Roman Catholic Charismatics and (Protestant) Pentecostals on their faith experiences, carried through in the region of Ecuador’s capital, Quito. The outcomes of this research sustain the thesis that there is substantial theological convergence between Roman Catholic Charismatic and Classical Pentecostal faith experiences that justifies the assumption of a shared theological identity. The joint theological characteristics and their interconnection facilitate a critical and fruitful dialogue between theology and social sciences on Latin American Pentecostalism.
