Just behind my living room sofa stands a table. On it is what I call decorative clutter—a dried floral bouquet, a ceramic jar, a candy dish, two small lamps, and two framed photos. The one sepia-colored photo is from the 1940s and pictures my grandfather, Ivan Spencer; his second eldest son, Merritt Spencer; and a […]
from the editor’s desk Welcome to our ten-year anniversary issue. Publication of the Pneuma Review began with the Fall 1997 issue. In celebration, we would like to say thank you to the many people that have contributed of their writings during these fruitful years. Peter Althouse, Jeffrey Anderson, Kenneth J. Archer, French L. Arrington, Francisco […]
from the editor’s desk In the Spring 2007 issue we announced that Kevin M. Williams would begin a new series investigating the person and work of the Holy Spirit in the Hebrew Scriptures. Kevin has expressed to the editorial committee the difficulty in researching this theologically-heavy subject. Due to his present schedule, he has […]
In a recent meeting I attended, expert communicator Dr. Quentin Schultz reminded us that all followers of Jesus are called to be servant communicators. All of us are part of the story that God is telling in the world, the story of His love, power, and forgiveness that is embodied in the life of […]
from the editor’s desk Has anyone ever asked you, “Are you one of them tongue-talkers?” After you get your eyes to stop rolling, you have to decide whether or not to do a witty comeback (no, this is not the kind of response I usually choose, but it appeals to my flesh to think […]
from the editor’s desk Unlike some critics of the Pentecostal/charismatic movement, those of us in the broad movement know that many diverse views are held by those who recognize the Holy Spirit’s activity today. Many controversial issues and shades of emphasis keep the movement from being any kind of monolith. Only the core doctrines of […]
We study God – theologize – to learn more about who He is and His way of walking out our lives. We study to become more like Messiah and do what He reveals to us. Therefore, theology that cannot be “done” has little value. We can frame this as a biblical imperative. As we love […]
On behalf of the editorial committee, I would like to express my gratitude to the numerous individuals that make the ministry of the Pneuma Foundation possible. We deeply appreciate the many pastors, scholars, leaders, and thinkers that regularly contribute to the publications of the Foundation. I hope that it will not be seen as presumption […]
from the editor’s desk What have you been reading lately? Besides, of course, every issue of the Pneuma Review that you receive. What books are challenging you to think beyond the old boundaries and grow in your relationship with our Master? What ideas and practical insights are you discussing among your friends and peers? I […]
Blessings to you, reader, in the name of our Messiah and Lord Jesus Christ. It is a true privilege to announce our sixth year of publication beginning with this issue. I am standing in awe of what God has allowed this simple ministry to have accomplished so far. In this issue you will find an […]
Fall is my favorite time of year. I enjoy the crisp mornings and pleasant evenings which are great for curling up with a book or your favorite journal. Even if you do not live in a crisp-autumny place like I do, may the Fall of 2002 be a memorable time for you and those you […]
It is my pleasure to introduce this start of the fifth volume of the Pneuma Review. The editorial committee and I wish to express our deep gratitude to the Lord and to our readers for your support. By His grace, we will continue to publish this journal. I trust that it has been an encouragement […]
Notes from the Editor: This tenth issue begins our fourth year of publication. I trust that you have found the Pneuma Review to be a publication that you can use. Unfortunately, one promised ingredient in this issue has been postponed until the future. Kingsway Publications of Great Britain had extended permission to the Pneuma […]
Notes from the Editor: This issue marks two years of publication. On behalf of the editors, I would like to express thanks to God for His blessing upon this publication. The Pneuma Review has grown to be more than what many of us dreamed possible. I trust that our readers have found it to […]
