This book explores the intersection of Pentecostal theology and public life, particularly in the marketplace and public sphere. It examines how Pentecostal leaders in South Florida integrate their faith into various domains, such as politics, business, education, and community service. The author challenges the traditional divide between secular and sacred work, arguing that faith should actively influence professional and social environments.
The book provides a historical perspective on Pentecostalism, tracing its roots from the Azusa Street Revival to its global impact today. It also discusses the role of public theology and how Pentecostals engage with social, economic, and political issues. Through ethnographic research and interviews with Pentecostal professionals, the book highlights personal experiences, challenges, and the perception of success in integrating faith with work.
Ultimately, the book advocates for a more engaged and mission-driven Pentecostal presence in society, urging believers to view their careers as platforms for spiritual and social transformation.
