Vineyard Movement - Definition and Overview |
|

|
|
The Vineyard Movement is a combination renewal and church-planting movement which can also be considered a Christian denomination. While often considered charismatic, they prefer the term empowered evangelicals to reflect their roots in traditional Evangelicalism, as opposed to historic Pentecostalism (though they sometimes describe themselves as the radical middle between the two). Vineyard philosophy has also played a key role in the development of transformationalism.
John Wimber was the leading founder of the movement, who split with Calvary Chapel in 1982. The Vineyard movement includes 850 churches across the world as of 2003.
