Poloma, Margaret M.

The Assemblies of God : Godly love and the revitalization of American Pentecostalism / Margaret M. Poloma and John C. Green. - New York : New York University Press, 2010 - ix, 259 p. : ill. ; 24 cm.

Includes bibliographical references (p. 239-247) and index.

The Assemblies of God draws on fresh, up-to-date research including quantitative surveys and interviews conducted within twenty-two Assemblies of God congregations to offer a new sociological portrait of the AG for the new millennium. The authors suggest that there is a revitalization of the movement in the works within the context of the larger Pentecostal upswing, and that this revitalization may be spurred by what the authors call "godly love" : the dynamic interaction between perceived divine and human love that enlivens and expands adherents' benevolence.
