Presents a multidisciplinary study of how Nigerian pentecostals
conceive of and engage with a spirit-filled world, arguing that the
character of the movement is defined through an underlying "spell
of the invisible." This book presents a multidisciplinary study of
how Nigerian Pentecostals conceive of and engage with a
spirit-filled world. It seeks to discern the spirituality of the
charismatic religious movement in Nigeria in relation to issues of
politics, national sovereignty, economic development, culture,
racial identity, gender, social ethics, and epistemology. Nimi
Wariboko describes the faith's core beliefs and practices,
revealing a "spell of the invisible" that defines not only the
character of the movement but also believers' ways of seeing,
being, and doing. Written by an insider to the tradition, Nigerian
Pentecostalism will also engage outsiders with an interest in
criticalsocial theory, political theory, and philosophy. Nimi
Wariboko is the Katherine B. Stuart Professor of Christian Ethics
at Andover Newton Theological School, Newton, Massachusetts.
