- 7- THE "OVERCOMING" LIFE: A STUDY IN THE REFORMED EVANGELICAL CONTRIBUTION TO PENTECOSTALISM by Edith L. Waldvogel Early-twentieth-century American Pentecostalism has been perceived as part of a world-wide awakening which, in turn, be- came an international phenomenon.1 More specifically, American Pentecostalism emerged in Topeka, Kansas at the end of 1900 when a small, interdenominational group of evangelicals agreed among themselves that glossolalia was the scriptural evidence of an experience of baptism with the Holy Spirit. There have been two traditional approaches to the study of American Pentecostalism. The first cites the Wesleyan Holiness revival as the movement's primary source: the second focuses on Pentecostalism's distinctive emphasis on glossolalia and therefore suggests the movement's continuity with an idealized and pre- sumedly continuous stream of Christianity in which glossolalia consistently reappeared. Neither perspective takes into account Edith Waldvogel is the wife of a pastor in metropolitan New York. She earned the Ph.D. degree in American Church History at Harvard Uni- versity. This article is a summary of her dissertation which was done under the direction of George H. Williams. - 8- the emergence during the late nineteenth century of a strongly doctrinal emphasis on the Holy Spirit among non-Wesleyan
