Summary: | The collection Pentecostalism and Prosperity explores the socio-economic implications of the global Pentecostal/charismatic prosperity movement with a duel focus on the movement's effect on individual believers and global economies. The collection has an impressive scope that includes Africa, Latin America, The United States, China, and Eastern Europe and makes an important wide-ranging contribution to an emerging scholarly conversation., A generally anti-denominational form of Christianity, the movement labeled here as “Prosperity Theology,” includes a wide range of labels and categorizations including Word of Faith or Faith movement, Neo-Pentecostalism, “name it and claim it,” and the “health and wealth” gospel. |
