Focusing on the historical development of Pentecostalism in Africa during the Twentieth Century, this book examines the movement's nonviolent roots and advocates for a new biblical hermeneutic to reconnect with its pacifist traditions. It highlights the role of Pentecostalism in African society and its potential for fostering positive social change. Offering a fresh perspective on pacifism within world Christianity, this work is valuable for scholars in Pentecostal Studies, Theology, Religion and Violence, and African Studies.
