Significance of Religion
"Religious movements and ideas are incredibly consequential in today's world. From a critical, intellectual perspective, you can't ignore the significance of these things in people’s lives. And if it's important, then it should be worthy of study.
"From the beginning, True Jesus Church members were speaking in tongues and practicing exorcism. Some of the scholarship has suggested that these Pentecostal Christians 'did this crazy stuff because they were poor and uneducated'. I thought, 'There's got to be more there' and so I looked and indeed, there is more there!
"The early converts read the Bible and used their own critical faculties to interpret Christian life for themselves, rather than accepting all the cultural practices associated with missionary denominations. They looked at the Europeans in their luxurious houses, their stiff and silent prayers, and their very-European-sounding church names (like 'London Missionary Society' or 'Wesleyan Methodist'). They said, 'What you missionaries have brought us does not look or sound like the Bible. So we are going to follow the Bible and the true Jesus Christ!'
"And so they tried to follow the Bible 'directly', seeking the same miracles and experiences as described in the Bible, including praying in tongues."
The challenge of being a religious scholar of religion is that same critical scrutiny you apply to other traditions, you also apply to your own tradition.
