The distinctive characteristic of early Methodism in the United States that most appealed to people and resulted in conversions and joining the Methodist Church was not a theological concept, such as Arminianism, but rather was "enthusiasm," including dreams, visions, supernatural impressions, miraculous healings, [[Speaking in tongues]], swoons, and trances.<ref> John H. Wigger, "Taking Heaven by Storm: Enthusiasm and Early American Methodism, 1770-1820" ''Journal of the Early Republic'' 1994 14(2): 167-194 [http://www.jstor.org/stable/3124220  in JSTOR]</ref>

Inspired by revivalist and fundamentalist movements, the Pentecostal movement was founded in Topeka, Kansas, by Charles F. Parham, a Methodist preacher.  The most prominent occurrence in the early history of Pentecostalism was the 1906-09 Azusa Street Revival in Los Angeles. This event was marked by great emotional excitement, relatively brief interracial harmony, and an obsession with speaking in tongues and healing. It was touched off by the preaching of William J. Seymour, a black preacher who had absorbed Patham's teachings. Glossolalia became a central issue in it, as a criterion for baptism. It was organized into the [[Assemblies of God]] which founded many missions.

In 1967 the emergence of Catholic Pentecostalism surprised many inside and outside the Church.  Its origin was among thousands of Catholic lay leaders.  This movement's beginning is marked by Catholics publicly speaking in tongues. <ref>Vinson  Synan, ''The Holiness-Pentecostal Tradition: Charismatic Movements in the Twentieth Century.''
