African Pentecostal Spiritual Men in the United Kingdom

The African Pentecostal spiritual men in the diaspora have gone through a rigorous metamorphosis in order to save their dignity, marriage and families. Many factors affect masculinities, but this study focused on diaspora and African Pentecostalism spirituality. Diasporic contexts present a plethora of challenges, and African Pentecostal spiritual men are continuously negotiating to produce new forms of masculinities—a gap needing scholarly attention. Therefore, there is a stripping of the residual overarching patriarchal tendencies embedded in both culture and African Pentecostal spirituality. Over decades of staying in the diaspora, African Pentecostal spiritual men spiritually marinate themselves in the power of the Holy Spirit to succeed in challenging terrains. This study used Pentecostal hermeneutics as a theoretical framework and a qualitative methodology. Sermonic discourse analysis, participant observations and informal conservations were the methods used to gather data. The study explored the opportunities that African Pentecostal spiritual men in the diaspora are embracing because of embracing transformative masculinities. The significant findings of this study showed that African Pentecostal spiritual men in the United Kingdom are seeking peace with everyone; using the spirit of grabbing milk and the spiritual men are surviving a decaying world.
