Developments in North American Pentecostalism Research

Abstract for Online Program Book (maximum 150 words)

This roundtable is an interdisciplinary discussion of newer developments in the rapidly changing context of North American Pentecostal-charismatic Christianity and the research that investigates these developments. The discussions expand the insights of the Brill Encyclopedia of Global Pentecostalism (2021) with regional supplements focusing attention on regional, contextual, and racial differentiation in the emerging research on Pentecostalism. Topics include psychological and neurobiological analyses on tongues; the fringes of Pentecostal; Pentecostalism, New Apostolic Reformation, and Christian Nationalism; Pentecostalism, digital religion, and celebrity; and Reggaetón, Pentecostal Rappers, and Bad Bunny.
