Theological Reflections on the Charismatic Movement – Part 1 Churchman 94/1 1980
Theological Reflections on the Charismatic Movement – Part 1 Churchman 94/1 1980 J. I. Packer I My subject is a complex and still developing phenomenon which over the past twenty years has significantly touched the entire world church, Roman Catholic, Orthodox, Anglican and non-episcopal Protestant, at all levels of life and personnel and across a wide theological spectrum.1 Sometimes it is called Neo-Pentecostalism because, like the older Pentecostalism which ‘spread like wildfire over the whole world’2 at the start of this century, it affirms Spirit-baptism as a distinct post-conversion, post-water-baptism experience, universally needed and universally available to those who seek it. The movement has grown, however, independently of the Pentecostal denominations, whose suspicions of its non-separatist inclusiveness have been—and in some quarters remain—deep, and its own preferred name for itself today is ‘charismatic renewal’.3 For it sees itself as a revitalizing re-entry into a long-lost world of gifts and ministries of the Holy Spirit, a re-entry which immeasurably deepens individual spiritual lives, and through which all Christendom may in due course find quickening. Charismatic folk everywhere stand on tiptoe, as it were, in excited expectation of great things in store for the church as the movement increasingly takes hold. Already its spokesmen claim for it major ecumenical significance. ‘This movement is the most unifying in Christendom today’, writes Michael Harper; ‘only in this movement are all streams uniting, and all ministries -

Spaces of Performance: by Rachel Meade Smith Considering Event, Agency and Routine1
Spaces of performance: by rachel meade smith Considering Event, Agency and Routine1 This selection of entries threads together diverse takes on the space of performance, including notable mo- ments and individuals within traditional performance design (scenography), and spatial and social concepts related to diverse notions of “performativity.” The topic of performance is broadly defined in this work, encompassing interpretations relating to live arts, social and political performance. By putting in conver- sation these alternately explicit and implicit notions of performance, I propose that space and design are distinct actors in both traditional performance and the performance of everyday life and everyday agency. This proposition begs the question of how designers can implement performative thinking towards creating experiences of engagement, agency, and an interactive public life. I can take any empty space and call it a bare stage. A man walks across this empty space whilst someone else is watching him, and this is all that is needed for an act of theater to be engaged. —Peter Brook, The Empty Space PLOT(S) 014 issue 2 ADOLPHE APPIA Swiss scenographer Adolphe Appia is heralded as one of the first practitioners to critically consider design’s agency in staged performance. Rejecting the over- ly spectacular and 3D illusory sets that had dominated popular theater since the Renaissance, Appia proposed a modernist paradigm wherein design attended to the relation between actors’ movements, light, and sound, as opposed to the goal of realist representation. Working with famed compos- er Richard Wagner, Appia’s designs aligned with the ideal of gesamtkunstwerk, the total work of art. -

CONFERENCE ON WORLD MISSION AND EVANGELISM COME HOLY SPIRIT - HEAL AND RECONCILE Called in Christ to be reconciling and healing communities Athens (Greece), 9-16 May 2005 PLEN 10 May Embargoed against delivery Document No 4 “WHEN THE POOR ARE FIRED UP”: THE ROLE OF PNEUMATOLOGY IN PENTECOSTAL-CHARISMATIC MISSION Wonsuk Ma 1. As We Begin… During the one-hundred years of the modern Pentecostal-charismatic movement, it has made many impacts on Christianity in general, but its role in mission is extremely significant. The explosive growth of churches, particularly in the non-western continents, is but one example. As discussed below, there are several important roles of the Holy Sprit that are evident in the mission practices of Pentecostal- charismatic believers. However, before we take this journey of discovery, it will be helpful to clarify several issues. The first is the complexity of Pentecostal-charismatic Christianity in the world today. Many have argued that the “fountainhead” of the movement is found in North America at the turn of the twentieth century, especially at the Azusa Street Mission (1906-1909) under the leadership of the African-American preacher William J. Seymour. However, more evidence has been presented to contest this theory, with India and Korea being examples. Also, the stunning “discoveries” of so-called “indigenous Pentecostals” from Africa and Asia appear to support the theory of “multiple fountainheads” for the origin of Pentecostal-charismatic Christianity.1 In fact, we may be arriving at the notion that “the church is charismatic” after all, from its inception. As I try to present this fastest-growing segment of Christendom, I do so with evident limitations.
