Description
Summary:This article reviews several key themes on evangelization and mission in the work of Walter J. Hollenweger including his evangelistic passion and methodology, ecumenical and interreligious dialogue, and attention to the relation of evangelization with social justice. Showing Hollenweger’s creativity, criticism, and commitment, the essay elucidates distinctive elements of Pentecostal evangelism in conversation with Hollenweger’s work and suggests ways to appropriate Hollenweger’s views on dialogical evangelization that may offer contemporary Pentecostals helpful models for evangelism and mission in today’s world based on the values of relationship, authenticity, and friendship.
