Pentecostal Theology

Wolfgang Vondey is Professor of Christian Theology and Pentecostal Studies, and Director of the Centre for Pentecostal and Charismatic Studies, University of Birmingham, UK.

Vondey’s presentation of Pentecostal theology is a winsome, masterful account attuned to all the latest in Pentecostal scholarship. It is both innovative in its presentation of the whole of the Pentecostal full gospel narrative as centred around the altar, and yet broadly Pentecostal—and, at points, ecumenical—in its constructive appeal. It will gain a wide readership, and justly so. Indeed, it is the ideal book for an upper-level undergraduate or graduate course on Pentecostal theology.
