The Charismatic Movement in Taiwan from 1945 to 1995 The Surprising Work of God, 1970–1979

The Charismatic Movement in Taiwan from 1945 to 1995 : The Surprising Work of God, 1970–1979 [This chapter identifies the seven most significant clusters of pentecostal-charismatic activities that were at work in Taiwan in the 1970s. To bring clarity to the narrative, the account centers primarily around five clusters of ministries headed by Pearl G. Young (1904-1986), Donald Dale (1923–1998) and Penelope Dale (1924–2016), Ross Paterson (1943–), Nicholas G. Krushnisky (1932-2016), and Allen J. Swanson (1934–). Major characters and events associated with these missionaries, including their impact on the Taiwanese Church and Taiwanese Christians, are discussed along the way. The charismatic messages brought about by these missionaries—framed by distinctive traditions to which they belonged—are also explored. The two other clusters of activities that are further introduced are the revival among the Tayal tribe and the Catholic Charismatic Renewal in Taiwan. This chapter includes several accounts in which charismatic manifestations took place unexpectedly among non-charismatic communities in Taiwan. Given that the Taiwanese Church at large expressed suspicion and dread toward the Pentecostal-Charismatic Movement up until 1980, the charismatic missionaries’ works in the 1970s were groundbreaking, and their successes represent remarkable achievements.] http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png

Abstract

[This chapter identifies the seven most significant clusters of pentecostal-charismatic activities that were at work in Taiwan in the 1970s. To bring clarity to the narrative, the account centers primarily around five clusters of ministries headed by Pearl G. Young (1904-1986), Donald Dale (1923–1998) and Penelope Dale (1924–2016), Ross Paterson (1943–), Nicholas G. Krushnisky (1932-2016), and Allen J. Swanson (1934–). Major characters and events associated with these missionaries, including their impact on the Taiwanese Church and Taiwanese Christians, are discussed along the way. The charismatic messages brought about by these missionaries—framed by distinctive traditions to which they belonged—are also explored. The two other clusters of activities that are further introduced are the revival among the Tayal tribe and the Catholic Charismatic Renewal in Taiwan. This chapter includes several accounts in which charismatic manifestations took place unexpectedly among non-charismatic communities in Taiwan. Given that the Taiwanese Church at large expressed suspicion and dread toward the Pentecostal-Charismatic Movement up until 1980, the charismatic missionaries’ works in the 1970s were groundbreaking, and their successes represent remarkable achievements.]
