A Study of Pentecostal Life Worlds in Urban Chile
Exploring the ritual and everyday religious practices through which Pentecostal life
worlds unfold this book breaks new ground in the study of Latin American and global
Pentecostalism. In addition to asking the familiar question of why many lower class Latin
Americans convert to Pentecostalism, the author asks another question, so far largely
neglected in the scholarly literature: how, or through what processes, do people begin and
continue to relate to themselves and the social world in a particular Pentecostal way? For
members of the Evangelical Pentecostal Church in Valparaíso, Chile, life is pervaded by
divine and satanic presence and intervention. Through its fine grained analysis of different
ritual, discursive/narrative and reflective processes the book shows how church members
integrate sacred others into their everyday lives ― or how they learn to live, think and
behave as Pentecostals.
Readership: Scholars, students and others with an interest in Pentecostalism, Chile and
Latin America and more generally in religious conversion, ritual practice and religious
experiences, religion and gender as well as in Christianity and politics.No publishermartinlindhardt2013-02-04T12:31:31ZFile
