GADAMA, Richard Gracious e HOFMEYR, Johannes Wynand. The early formation of charismatic churches in Malawi and their significance for the making of Malawian society. Studia Hist. Ecc. [online]. 2016, vol.42, n.2, pp.116-135. ISSN 2412-4265. http://dx.doi.org/10.17159/2412-4265/2016/1232.
In this article, we look at the history of charismatic churches in Malawi with a particular focus on some of the early charismatic churches. We first define what charismatic churches are. Secondly, we explore and explain the tremendous charismatic revival, tracing it from the time of its penetration in Malawi, its spread and also its survival on Malawian soil. The article also briefly focuses on the decisive role of women in the establishment of some of the early charismatic churches in Malawi. These include the Living Waters Church, Calvary Family Church, Glad Tidings Church and the Agape Church, among others, before some conclusions for the making of Malawian society are drawn.
