Title: Moved by the spirit
Description: "But if established Protestant and Catholic communities have begun to find their equilibrium after the tumult of what might eventually be considered the First global great awakening, Pentecostal and charismatic missionizing of non-Christian religious groups is sending even broader ripples through developing societies that are already in a state of flux. The cell-group strategies of renewalist "church-planters" in India, China and tribal regions of Indonesia and Brazil often disturb deeply established structures of kinship and belief - a process that exposes tensions between the values of religious freedom and social stability. The following pages explore these issues in greater depth and detail, looking frequently at how the interplay between Christian renewal movements and the particular elements of a given cultural landscape influence developments in politics, economic equality, gender relations or sexuality"--P. 9.
