Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2020 in the subject Theology - Practical Theology, , language: English, abstract: The purpose of this study is to research Pentecostal churches as faith-based organizations in Tanzania and Ethiopia. The aim is to research the relationship between the Free Pentecostal Church of Tanzania (FPCT) and the Tanzanian society and the Ethiopian Hiwot Berhan Church (EHBC) and the Ethiopian society, with a special focus on three of the goals in the Global Agenda: conflicts, gender equality and environment. The study is conducted through interviews with focus groups in Tanzania and Ethiopia and written responses from church leaders on the subject in the two countries, all from two Pentecostal denominations. The study aims at investigating how Pentecostal churches understand their role in the society and in what way they can be change agents. Three fields from the UN Global Goals were chosen as a focus for this study: conflicts, gender, and environment. The study and material is presented together with some theories for a deeper analysis. From the field of social science, the study introduces scholars like Roland Ingelhart and Pippa Norris, and Stanley Hauerwas and William H. Willimon. From the field of Pentecostal studies, the study refers to scholars like Donald E. Miller and Tetsunao Yamamori, as well as Dena Freeman and Elizabeth Brusco.
