Innovation and Competition in Zimbabwean Pentecostalism: Megachurches and the Marketization of Religion de Ezra Chitando

Innovation and Competition in Zimbabwean Pentecostalism: Megachurches and the Marketization of Religion: Bloomsbury Studies in Black Religion and Cultures

Editat de Ezra Chitando
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 24 aug 2022
Using the concept of a "religious market", this volume explores how African Traditional Religions and churches within Prophetic Pentecostalism in Zimbabwe seek to attract and retain members and clients.Chapters provide extensive coverage of two of the leading churches, namely, Emmanuel Makandiwa's United Family International Church (UFIC) and Walter Magaya's Prophetic Healing and Deliverance Ministries (PHD). Contributors also explore the strategies adopted by Pentecostalism in general, while others focus on African Traditional Religions. They show that although Prophetic Pentecostalism has gained a significant share of the market in Zimbabwe and in Southern Africa in general, it is not without controversy. In particular, it has been associated with the abuse of women and exploiting members and clients for financial gain.Innovation and Competition in Zimbabwean Pentecostalism is an important contribution to understanding the marketization of religion.

Recenzii

[T]his volume successfully demonstrates that ATR with its many manifestations of the spirit, lives on in contemporary and modern Zimbabwean society via the Pentecostal phenomena.
This book offers an intriguing, often scandalous account of competition among Pentecostal leaders in Zimbabwe through analyses that successfully call attention to healing as a constant felt need in contexts where health systems have been severally compromised.
