Abstract

This paper provides an in depth ethnographic analysis of a small religious ministry. Full Gospel Christian Church, hereafter Full Gospel, is a "spirit-filled" ministry in Bloomington, Illinois. The members of the church believe in a living Christ who will "bring more peace, joy, and happiness in your life than you have ever known" (Full Gospel Christian Church literature, n.d.). Full Gospel is a ministry actively recruiting souls to Christ and spreading the Good News of the Word to all who will listen.
