Infos

Pentecostalism, one of the fastest growing global religious movements, counts Latine people among its earliest adopters. Drawing on US-based and migrant traditions, Latine Pentecostals today continue to reinvent themselves in creative and adaptive ways. While Pentecostalism initially drew attention for its ecstatic practices, participants maintain a spirituality of deep interiority that has sustained Latine Pentecostals in the borderlands for generations. When the Spirit Is Your Inheritance explores Latino Pentecostalism from an intergenerational, insider perspective. As a sociologist born and raised in Latino Pentecostalism, Jonathan Calvillo curates an autoethnographic journey through the converging sociocultural streams shaping his Latino Pentecostal lifeworlds. Focusing on lived religious practices, sociological perspectives, and grounded theological reflection, Calvillo paints a critical and caring picture of Latino Pentecostalism.Through snapshots of Pentecostal belonging in social and geographic borderlands, the book addresses issues of migration, Latinidad, race, and social justice. Ultimately, Calvillo considers what the empathetic Spirit-centric practices he has observed within Pentecostalism might teach others.
