Who is growing faster: AoG, or UPCi?
Have there been any studies done on Pentecostal growth in regards to membership?

I am not UPC or AOG but have been growing quite fast. I think I went from 185 to 195 in one year.
From the looks of the UPC folks I see at Wal Mart and restaurants they appear to be growing quite a bit also, particularly the women. It is hard to tell who the AOG people are, particularly the women since they don't have the blue jean skirt with no slit and tennis shoes uniform. They may not be growing as much as the UPC. I hope these observations help. |

Growth in terms of what? People switching churches or affiliations or new converts to the Lord from just being a sinner or from false religion like Mormonism etc ?

I wonder with the surge in popularity with Sarah Palin and her connection to Pentecostalism if there has been a move towards the denomination, further more, which one; AoG or UPCi? I'm just curious and I wonder if there has been any recent stat's released... Such as "UPCi claim 52 million members worldwide" "AoG claim 60 million members worldwide" |

UPC "Total worldwide membership, including North America, is listed at 4,036,945."
AoG ..."approximately 57 to 60 million adherents worldwide." Wikipedia |

I would be surprised if Palin made any measurable difference at all.

How much can you believe from those figures?
You've heard the old adage, "Figures can't lie but liars can figure." What do they count for members? All those who "attend" on Easter? Those who hold a membership card and tithe regularly? |
