"Using the concept of a "religious market", this volume explores how African Traditional
Religions and churches within Prophetic Pentecostalism in Zimbabwe seek to attract
and retain members and clients. Chapters provide extensive coverage of two of the
leading churches, namely, Emmanuel Makandiwa's United Family International Church
(UFIC) and Walter Magaya's Prophetic Healing and Deliverance Ministries (PHD). Contributors
also explore the strategies adopted by Pentecostalism in general, while others focus
on African Traditional Religions. They show that although Prophetic Pentecostalism
has gained a significant share of the market in Zimbabwe and in Southern Africa in
general, it is not without controversy. In particular, it has been associated with
the abuse of women and exploiting members and clients for financial gain. Innovation
and Competition in Zimbabwean Pentecostalism is an important contribution to understanding
the marketization of religion."
