Little more than 100 years old, Pentecostalism currently has 600 million followers worldwide and is on track to have 1 in 10 people pledging allegiance by 2050. Reporting this revolution from twelve countries – including Australia - Elle Hardy’s Beyond Belief: How Pentecostal Christianity is Taking Over the World weaves a timeless tale of miracles, money and power, set in our volatile age of extremes. Equal parts troubling and entertaining, Beyond Belief exposes the Pentecostal agenda: not just saving souls, but transforming societies and controlling politics… and they have the cash and influence to succeed.
