Catherine. a Pentecostal Pastor
A Pentecostal pastor
By Emir MahieddinEnglish
This paper deals with the uncommon life story of a woman who was the first female pastor of an important Pentecostal congregation in Jönköping, south of Sweden, between 2009 and 2012. Although this case is quite exceptionnal, it allows to grasp the social history of the Pentecostal movement in Sweden as a whole. This religious character is also used here as a basis to think the question of the conception of the person within Christianity, and to analyse exceptionnal individuals from an anthropological perspecive.
