Pentecostalism began in a Los Angeles livery stable with Black and white believers worshiping together while segregation was the law, and it has become the fastest-growing Christian movement in history. Its recovery of the Spirit's gifts, and the songs it has written, have crossed into nearly every other tradition on this map.
