Tiivistelmä
Change in the Relationship between the Finnish Evangelical-Lutheran Church and the Pentecostal Movement from the Perspective of Congregational Workers — The Finnish Pentecostal Movement, the largest free Protestant movement in Finland, has a history of controversy with the Lutheran Church. As the Movement has developed into a more organised denomination and early radicalism has to an extent been replaced with moderation, relations between the Church and the Movement have also improved. The research I conducted on the subject reveals that congregational workers have now a relatively positive view of the opposite movement. The few current controversies are local and associated with certain people in positions of power, or are the result of differing congregational cultures. Change in society have ensured that both parties now emphasise their similarities. Furthermore, new generations of pastors and church workers have created new experiences, personal relationships and networks that have facilitated a better relationship between the two communities.
