About the Journal

The Dictionary of African Pentecostal-Charismatic Biographies is an Open Access publication that documents the lives and contributions of pioneers and leaders of the Pentecostal-Charismatic movement across Africa and the African diaspora. After a century of Pentecostal-Charismatic mission on the continent, many founding figures have passed on without their stories being adequately recorded. This represents a tragic loss of knowledge about a vital religious tradition. The Dictionary thus aims to preserve these stories and make them freely available to researchers, students, and the wider public.
