God, Suffering, and Pentecostals

Theology

“Despite the explosive growth of global Pentecostalism, few scholars are wrestling with issues of theodicy from the perspective of the tradition. Nel provides a welcome exploration of the realities and theology of suffering. . . . While academically rigorous, this book is profoundly practical as it grounds the experience of suffering in the pastorate. Even more, this book is very needed in the current context as we navigate the heartbreaking impact of the COVID-19 global pandemic.”

Growing Women in Ministry

Church Leadership & Ministry

“Anna Morgan champions a holistic pathway for shaping women leaders. Based on solid research, Growing Women in Ministry provides female-specific training that is both practical and inspiring. Importantly, it envisions women as full partners with men in building the church and continuing the mission of Christ.”

How to Worship for All Its Worth

Preaching & Worship

“Steven Félix-Jäger not only provides rich biblical and theological foundations for understanding worship but also equips readers to evaluate worship music, using solid questions and criteria modeled in case studies. I found it incredibly helpful and practical for understanding and leading worship music for all its worth.”

Pedagogical Theory of Wisdom Literature

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Adrian Hinkle discovers within the wisdom literature of the Old Testament a wealth of teaching methods that provide insight for the contemporary teacher and preacher. This book will enrich both your knowledge of the wisdom texts, as well as provide examples of pedagogy used by the ancient community that educators today support as best practice.”

Pentecostal Hermeneutics in the Late Modern World

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“Oliverio brings together in this book a rich engagement with philosophy along with specific reflection on the tacit conditions that inform interpretation to develop a robust theological hermeneutic that is authentic to the Pentecostal tradition. The result is a pneumatically centered ecumenical vision for the interpretive task.”

Pentecostal Imagination and the Retrieval of Identity

Theology

“Paul Baker presents a tour de force of Pentecostalism and philosophical hermeneutics to develop his unique pneumatology of history. Drawing on the key interlocutors of Yong and Ricoeur, he skillfully addresses this significant gap in current Pentecostal theology.”

Pentecostal Prophets

Biblical Studies & Commentaries

“The gift and practice of prophecy is a contested topic in the church today, particularly in Pentecostal and charismatic contexts. Stephen Barkley’s book is a timely contribution to the study of prophecy. He identifies and explores the congruencies between the Hebrew prophets and the practice of prophecy in some contemporary Pentecostal communities. In doing so, he removes some of the abstruseness surrounding prophecy, instead revealing it as a vital and deeply sacramental experience.”

Re-enchanting the Text

Theology

“Cheryl Bridges Johns exposes the shallowness of current perceptions of Scripture in many Evangelical and Pentecostal contexts and then invites us to inhabit a new world—a liminal space where the Bible opens us to the beauty and mystery of the triune life of God. Johns’s vision of and for Scripture in Re-enchanting the Text calls us into deeper, richer participation in God’s revelation and presence. This vision is vital to engage the next generation, whose members long for true spirituality and value authenticity.”

The Prosperity Gospel in Africa

Theology

“As a Pentecostal and African scholar, Marius Nel provides an important voice speaking into the prosperity gospel message. Nel navigates the complexity of issues specific to the African context while providing a hermeneutical solution with global significance.”
