An excellent book on Pentecostal history and theology
In her review in the Christian Century, Edith Blumhofer of the Institute for the Study of American Evangelicals said this was one of only a very few "must read" books dealing with Pentecostalism. She is absolutely right. This book is written in a lively style very different from some of the boring theology I have read in the past. It is fun to read, and if you have any interest in Pentecostals ...

The Holiness-Pentecostal Tradition: Charismatic Movements in the Twentieth Century

A most excellent work...
This a very good book that gives much information on the Holiness and Pentecostal traditions. It does very good to talk also about the Charismatic movmenent in various churches. It is interesting how it documents the different approaches to sanctification and baptism with the Holy Spirit, and how these two works are experienced or dependent on one another. This did create division among early ...

Theological Book on Pentecostal Position
Dr. Anthony Palma represents the heart of the new emerging breed of theologians in the classical Pentecostal position. Now retired, Dr. Palma was a distinguished professor at the Assemblies of God Theological Seminary in Springfield, MO (AGTS). This book offers a much deeper and more theological position of the Assemblies of God on the person and work of the Holy Spirit. Most of this book was ...

Brief Introduction to the Assemblies of God Doctrines
The Assemblies of God is the world's largest classical Pentecostal denomination in the world with over 40 million members worldwide. It is also the largest missionary movement in history of humanity. However, all of this has evolved from the Assemblies of God Statement of Fundamental Truths written in 1914 in Hot Springs, Arkansas. This short volume covers those sixteen truths. Each truth is ...
Oneness Pentecostals and the Trinity

Gregory A. Boyd

Good overview of UPC
There are a number of well-meaning individuals found in UPC and Apostolic churches who have an immense hatred for the Trinity. "It's not a word found in the Bible," adherents often cry, begging the question that words they use to describe the Godhead are not found there either (i.e. "oneness"). In this book, Boyd does a good job explaining why the Trinity is true, as the concepts are clearly ...

A valuable resource!
I've had "Foundations of Pentecostal Theology" for about a year now. There have been quite a few times over the past 12 months where I've turned to it for a succinct, clear summary of various pentecostal/interdenominational views. Each time I've been impressed how fair and thorough Van Cleave and Duffield are in this work. Even if you don't agree with their viewpoints, you will admit that ...

Recommendation of the author
I am looking forward to my copy arriving and look forward to reviewing it. Before doing so, however, I want to recommend the author to you. After reading his work on John Nelson Parr an influencial Pentecostal leader in the UK, I was, as I expected, impressed with the angle on the book. Harry Letson always gives great insight and shows keen attention to detail. The aspect I most enjoy ...
Baptized in the Spirit: A Global Pentecostal Theology

Frank D. Macchia
Zondervan
, 2006
An Important Pentecostal Work!
Frank Macchia has set Pentecostal theology in its proper theological context. His approach is ecumenical in that he sees the baptism in the Holy Spirit as being for the entire Church. Macchia is in dialogue throughout this work with other Pentecostal scholars that have gone before like Stephen J. Land, Robert Menzies, Gordon Fee, and Roger Stronstad. Macchia sees the doctrine of Spirit baptism ...

An Early Pentecostal Justification for Tongues as Evidence of Spirit-Baptism
This book is one of the first books written at the height of the charismatic movement from a Pentecostal perspective toward defending speaking in tongues as the initial, physical evidence of the baptism in the Holy Spirit according to Acts 2:4. Brumback, an Assemblies of God pastor, first defended the doctrine in a series of radio sermons and the sermons were so popular that he put them on ...

Gospel Publishing House

The Complete Resource For Pentecostal Pastors
I am aware that many in the evangelical church who are not charismatic believe that the Pentecostal movement borders on complete heresy. Many view the Pentecostal church and their pastors as experience based fanatics. If anyone would take time to read THE PENTECOSTAL PASTOR then they would see that this is certainly not the case with the Assemblies of God. This massive volume weighs in on ...

What A Blessing!
The Great Men of Faith--what are their stories? How did they come to faith in Christ? How did they find a place of Grace in which they were endued with Pentecostal power? What did they do right, and where did they miss God's best? Keith Malcomson has researched and collected the stories of the Early Pentecostal men and women of old, and presents the answers to these questions in his new book, ...
Systematic Theology: A Pentecostal Perspective

Logion Press

Great Systematic Theology
This work is edited by Dr. Stanley Horton and is written by various Assemblies of God pastors and theologians. The book is the best systematic theology I have ever seen put out by any Pentecostal church. The book covers the 16 fundamental truths of the Assemblies of God.... It deals with every major evangelical teaching but differs, of course, with mainline chuches on the Assemblies of God ...
Growing Up Pentecostal

Each time I put this book down in order to do chores, it unrelentingly lured me back and they wouldn't get done!
Very rarely are words absent from my fingertips, hindering my ability to write a review on an excellent book. Today, however, I am having such a dilemma because this book has almost left me speechless. In fact, I had just gotten the kids off to school and settled in to finish its last two chapters, when an alarm set on "snooze" in the next room began obnoxiously sounding off. That alarm yelled ...
