Description

The Pentecostal and Charismatic Research Initiative (PCRI) uses a competitive process to provide funding to those scholars and institutes around the world best able to contribute to understanding the dynamics of the worldwide growth of Pentecostal and Charismatic movements, with a particular focus on worship, prayer, spirit, creativity and entrepreneurial activity. It also studies Pentecostal and Charismatic religion in Los Angeles, where Pentecostalism began. Finally, the PCRI establishes a Pentecostal and Charismatic Research Archive, which is creating a global inventory of published resources on Pentecostals and Charismatic subjects, as well as builds an online digital archive of primary historical materials related to Pentecostal and Charismatic Christianity from different regions of the world.
