The growth of Global Pentecostalism in the past century has been studied and documented from many perspectives. Its leadership, culture and ecclesiology, however, has received scant academic and theological attention.

The leadership struggles discussed in this book will resonate with any denomination that has grown or wrestled with polity, leadership and culture.

Church history has tended to place a premium on political power and institutional forms, thus portraying Christianity as a religion disseminated through official representatives of chu...
