Review of Lisa P. Stephenson, Dismantling the Dualisms for American Pentecostal Women in Ministry: A Feminist-Pneumatological Approach, (Leiden, Nether-lands: Brill, 2012) (original) (raw)

This review explores the work of Lisa P. Stephenson on the historical and cultural dynamics of American Pentecostal women in ministry, particularly focusing on the role of indigenous principles within the Assemblies of God. It analyzes the contributions of native leaders, their struggles against paternalism within the church, and the establishment of indigenous leadership and churches, emphasizing the impact these movements have had on redefining Pentecostal practices and the acknowledgment of women’s contributions in the movement.
