The new reformation : the amazing rise of the Pentecostal-Charismatic movement in the 20th century
TL;DRAbstract
A church revival which happened in 1906 in Los Angeles sparked a massive global church movement which came to be known as the Pentecostal-charismatic movement. It started with a single woman about a hundred years ago, and today it has more than 600 million adherents. It is perhaps the most significant development in the Christian church since the Protestant Reformation of the 16 century and it certainly has changed the face of Christianity irrevocably. In this article we look at the roots of this movement and its massive impact on the global Christian church. We will also attempt to answer the question of why this movement has been so incredibly successful.
