World Christianity: A Historical and Theological Introduction is unavailable, but you can change that!

At the heart of charismatic Christianity is the belief in a present and active Spirit of God who often acts supernaturally. As will be shown later, many majority-world Christians are charismatic by nature and most strongly believe in God’s will to supernaturally reveal God’s very self.
