| | Charismatic Movement |
 | | The Charismatic Movement is an expression used to refer to a movement within historic churches that began in the 1950s. |
 | | The challenge to the churches may be seen in the fact that since 1960 well over one hundred official denominational documents, regional, national, continental, and international, on the charismatic movement have been produced. |
 | | By definition the charismatic movement is concerned with charismata, the Greek term for "gifts of grace." Everywhere throughout the charismatic movement there is the claim that all the charismata, or charisms, mentioned in Scripture are, or should be, operational in the Christian community. |
