Pentecostalism is a spiritual Christian revivalist movement that began with Protestants and was also accepted by the Roman Catholic Church in the [[Second Vatican Council]]. The movement consists of a focus on the outpouring of the [[Holy Spirit]] on the [[Apostles]] as described in the [[Acts of the Apostles]] and embrace that same spirituality on a weekly or daily basis today. In sum, Pentecostalism consists of becoming a messenger for the [[Holy Spirit]] in modern times. Adherents seek gifts of prophecy and healing, and sometimes speak in different or unrecognized tongues.

Supporters of the movement cite as an obstacle to participation a distrust or diffidence towards the [[Holy Spirit]]'s ability to achieve today what was accomplished in the first century A.D.
