| Summary: | "Research on Pentecostal and Charismatic Christianity has increased dramatically in recent decades, and a diverse range of disciplines has begun to address a range of elements of these movements. Yet, there exists very little understanding of Pentecostal theology, and it is not uncommon to encounter stereotypes and misperceptions. Addressing this gap in current research, The Routledge Handbook of Pentecostal Theology is an outstanding reference source to the key topics, challenges and debates in this growing field of study and is the first collection of its kind on this subject. Comprising over forty chapters written by a team of international contributors, the Handbook is divided into five parts: Contextualizing Pentecostal Theology, Sources, Theological Method, Doctrines and Practices, Conversations and Challenges. These sections take the reader through a comprehensive introduction to what Pentecostals believe and how they practice their faith. Looking at issues such hermeneutics, worship, eschatology and Feminism, among many others, within Pentecostalism, they allow a nuanced and global picture of Pentecostal theology to emerge. The Routledge Handbook of Pentecostal Theology is essential reading for students and researchers in Pentecostal Studies, World Christianity and Theology as well as scholars working in contemporary Religious Studies"-- |
