dc.description.abstractThis essay discusses yet another type of Pentecostal Christianity which has been growing in Ghana since the 1990s. It posits that this phenomenon deserves its own category. This movement has ethos, style and emphases that are supposedly Pentecostal yet depart markedly from mainstream Pentecostal traditions. Using this new phenomenon as a case study, the essay argues "that one of the main reasons for the emergence of new religious movements is the quest to find space when newer leaders and movements fail to fi t into the sophisticated and elitist structures and sty le of ministry of already established movements.en_US
