This book investigates the life and leadership of Lewi Pethrus, a
monumental figure in Swedish and international Pentecostalism. Joel
Halldorf describes Pethrus' role in the emergence of Pentecostalism
in Sweden, the ideals and practices of Swedish Pentecostalism, and
the movement's turn to professional party politics. When
Pentecostals in the USA ventured into politics, they became allied
with the Republican party, and later Donald Trump. The Swedish
Pentecostals took another route: while culturally conservative,
they embraced the progressive economic politics of the Social
Democratic party. During the 2010s, they have also rejected the
nationalism of the growing populist movement. Halldorf analyzes and
explains these differences between Swedish evangelicals and
Pentecostals on the one hand, and the Religious Right in the USA on
the other.
