| Summary: | Danish Pentecostalism is the least-known of the Scandinavian movements, and there is a lack of written sources. Thus, this article brings together research on the most recent and relevant sources to analyze the landscape of Pentecostalism, defined as classical Pentecostalism, the Charismatic movement, and the neo-pentecostal/neo-charismatic Free Churches in the nation. Denmark is considered one of the most Lutheran countries in the world and has been largely influenced by the Danish national icon N.F.S. Grundtvig. This religious and ecumenical context has enriched, limited, and challenged Pentecostalism from the beginning to this day. The article argues that, despite the small numbers and a liberal Grundtvigianism, ecumenical Pentecostalism grows in influence as a significant ecumenical and charismatic force within Danish Christianity. |
