Very Good / Like New Condition. 157 Pages. 1988 Paperback by Iain MacRobert thru Palgrave Macmillan 5.5x8.5x.25 inches. ISBN 1349194905 Synopsis "It explores the historical development of the Pentecostal church, emphasizing its origins among Black Christians in America who challenged racial inequality and segregation.
The authors examine how early Pentecostalism offered a radical alternative to racial division, but also how over time, the movement itself became divided along racial lines. The book also draws parallels with the Black Pentecostal Church in the UK and broader tensions between Black and white Christians in mainstream denominations." 158-06-25-25-223
