Description
Pentecostal theology is often characterized by its practical approach to faith. This book presents Pentecostal theology as well as the distinctive style of Pentecostal thinking and practice that sets it apart.
The worldview of Pentecostalism is rooted in a conviction that a faith that does not produce life or vitality is not worth pursuing. As a result, Pentecostals seek expressions of life and energy in their faith, rather than relying solely on intellectual understanding.
This theology is shaped by the community and the experience of its adherents, rather than traditional creeds or academic traditions. It is a functional theology that exists to operate, incorporating an experiential dimension into its exploration of doctrine.
