From its eighteenth-century emergence to the rise of its Pentecostal and charismatic varieties, Evangelicalism has often been shaped, differentiated, and divided by different theologies and practices in relation to the Holy Spirit. This conference will map and elucidate the varieties of Evangelical approaches to the Holy Spirit across time and place: from the early Evangelicalism of Whitefield and the Wesleys to contemporary Pentecostal uses of the past in social media, and across six continents.
Virtual Conference. Registration is required. All session times are in Central time zone.
Session moderators include Beth Allison Barr (James Vardaman Professor of History, Baylor University); João B. Chaves (Assistant Professor of the History of Religion in the Américas, Baylor University; Doug Weaver (Barbara Jo Beard Driskell Professor in Historical Studies, Baylor University).
