Summary: | The experience and understanding of ‘church’ in the Global South differs radically from the North. This is due to differences in size, background cultures and spiritualities, different experiences of the public space, varying resources and diverse leadership models, among other aspects.

This paper wrestles with this situation and attempts to outline some tentative aspects of a Pentecostal ecclesiology from the South. |
