520 |a Migration has not only led to the growth of African Pentecostalism in Belgium, it has also ignited interest in Pentecostalism's conceptions of God. This article discusses African Pentecostalism's articulation of its beliefs about God in an overtly disenchanted Belgian public sphere in which religion is impugned. This article contends that in the secularized West, African Pentecostalism presents a view of God as the anchor of stability in turbulent waters. This God, African Pentecostals aver, is the structuring principle who sustains human well-being. For this reason, praises, prayers, and prophetic proclamations are offered to God, from whom the pentecostal faithful expect healing, deliverance, and miracles.
