Rezensionen

"The book to be accessible to those interested in investigation and analysis over method. ... What Marina does bring is essential ethnographic insight into Pentecostalism in the English-speaking Caribbean ... . He gives voice to bishops, apostles, and pastors as they articulate their challenges and successes in this under-researched region." (Marcia Clarke, Pneuma, Vol. 39 (3), 2017)
