Based on ethnographic research among African Pentecostal Christians
living in the UK, this book addresses themes of migration and
community formation, religious identity and practice, and social
and political exclusion. With attention to strained kinship
relationships, precarious labour conditions, and struggles for
legal and social legitimacy, it explores the ways in which intimacy
with a Pentecostal God - and with fellow Christians - has been
shaped by the challenges of everyday life for Africans in the UK. A
study of religious subjectivity and the success of the so-called
'prosperity' gospel, African Pentecostalism in Britain examines the
manner in which the presence of God is realised for believers
through their complex and often-fraught relationships of trust and
intimacy with others. As such, it will appeal to sociologists and
anthropologists with interests in migration and religion.
