“Naar M’fundisi-Holloway’s Pentecostal and Charismatic Spiritualties and Civic Engagement in Zambia is a well researched examination of the historical journey of the Zambian Pentecostal/Charismatic church’s efforts at civic engagement from 1964 to 2012. … this text is a worthy project which narrates the transition of the Zambian church from viewing civic engagement with suspicion to it becoming a major player in the social welfare of the nation.” (Jan B.
