| Résumé: | The trajectories of the modern "Spirit Movement" affirm qualitatively new phenomena in the Ukrainian evangelical movement and religious life in the region. The rapid development of Pentecostalism in the Volyn region, where a third of all Pentecostals in the Ukraine live, its active entry "into the world" and its capacity for creative contextualization, necessitate a scholarly analysis of the "Spirit Movement." It is revealed that the Pentecostal movement in the Volyn region during the time of the totalitarian period functioned as an association of Christians united not by institutional context but by a common charismatic experience. The indifferent attitude of its adherents to the societal challenges of the time was an typical identifying characteristic of this movement. |
