RESEARCH PROJECT | HABILITATION

On the one hand, the research project aims to develop and discuss a decidedly theological profile of cross-denominational Pentecostal movements. On the other hand, it is a way of exploring new types of sources for systematic theology, on the basis of which given beliefs can be analysed. By elaborating the systematic-theological implications of religious practice, the project also improves the accessibility of such forms and contents of faith, which are otherwise little represented in academic-theological discourses.
