Progressive Evanglicos have received little attention from those
studying Brazilian Protestantism. By focusing on this branch of
Brazilian Protestantism, the author intends to contribute to the
understanding of the socio-political relevance of the Evanglico
presence in Brazil. Progressive Evanglico Christianity, which
combines charismatic spirituality with socio-political progressive
action, offers a valuable approach to Christian social ethics in
contemporary Brazil that may lead to substantive transformation at
both individual and social levels. The book presents specific
Evanglico responses to the plight of the poor, coming from three
different faces of Brazilian Protestantism: the Ecumenical face,
the Evangelical face and the Pentecostal face. The guiding argument
of this book is that the three faces present specific responses to
realities of suffering, injustice and oppression in Brazil, and
that when they are critically related with one another they
complement each other in ways that are instrumental for the
development of a Brazilian progressive Evanglico social ethics.
