Abstract
The historic roots of the Pentecostal movement are thoroughly connected to an urgent eschatology that fostered a worldwide missionary initiative. A century later the urgent eschatology, which was part of that earlier social landscape, is no longer as prominent. This contempory reality necessitates a revisiting of the nature of the missionary identity inherent in the Pentecostal movement. A revisiting of biblical, historical, and contextual consideration are necessary to fully actualize the continuing growth and nature of this global mission movement that has its origins in early 20th century Pentecostal revivalism. Most critical to this revisiting process is the realization that our telling of Pentecostal history may need broadening and the voices which now describe the essence of Pentecostalism are necessary to our continued vitality.
