Overlooked by the Spirit-filled: Womanist Pentecostalism and the case of the Hellenistic widows
From its inception until now, Pentecostalism has thrived among Black communities, women and those experiencing socio-economic deprivation. Pentecostal theological ethicists have dealt in some ways with the themes of race, class and gender but often as single issues, meaning that Black women, who exist at the intersections, can be overlooked. Womanist ethics has a particular contribution to make to Pentecostal theology and Pentecostal studies sinc…
Can Christian Ethics be Saved? Colonialism, Racial Justice and the Task of Decolonising Christian Theology
Christian ethical practice has historically fallen short, when we consider the histories of European colonial violence from the sixteenth century and the transatlantic slave trade in Africans.

This article considers the ongoing colonial tendencies of Christ…
Sisters in the “Hostile Environment”: A Womanist Theological Analysis of Brexit
This article builds upon Anthony Reddie's Theologising Brexit by offering a womanist perspective in response to his postcolonial and liberationist critique.

However, historically and in the present, pentecostals struggle to address the problems of inequity and oppression that impact certain bodies in the church and the world. This article explores this tension in Classical Pentecostalism with a focus on Azusa Street and contemporar…
Race, Inclusion and Social Justice in the British Church: A Review
Pentecostal power: Discipleship as political engagement
Pentecostalism has often been accused of being withdrawn from social and political concerns due to, amongst other things, a dual emphasis on personal salvation and individual discipleship. In this paper, I suggest that far from simply being an inwardly ecclesial occupation, the process of ‘making disciples’ is a political activity that impacts public life, that is the life of communities and nations. While some Pentecostals may be reluctant to se…
