Each one with the model answer underneath.

  1. 1

    What is the Charismatic Movement?

    Model answer

    The Charismatic Movement is the renewal of the gifts of the Spirit within the historic denominations. Members stay Anglican, Catholic or Methodist rather than joining Pentecostal churches.

  2. 2

    How does the Charismatic Movement differ from classical Pentecostalism?

    Model answer

    Classical Pentecostalism began around 1906 CE and formed separate denominations. Charismatic renewal from 1960 CE remained inside the existing churches.

  3. 3

    Which event is usually taken as the start of the Charismatic Movement?

    Model answer

    Dennis Bennett, an Episcopal rector in Van Nuys, California, told his congregation in 1960 CE that he had spoken in tongues. The publicity that followed spread the renewal widely.

  4. 4

    When did charismatic renewal reach the Roman Catholic Church?

    Model answer

    Catholic charismatic renewal began among students and staff at Duquesne University in 1967 CE. The movement spread quickly through American and then global Catholic parishes.

  5. 5

    What does the word charisma mean?

    Model answer

    Charisma is the Greek word for a gift of grace. Charismata are the spiritual gifts listed by Paul in 1 Corinthians 12.

  6. 6

    Which spiritual gifts does the movement most emphasise?

    Model answer

    The gifts of tongues, prophecy, interpretation, healing and words of knowledge receive the greatest emphasis. 1 Corinthians 12 and 14 supply the usual scriptural basis.
