The editors, staff, and directors of the Pneuma Foundation would like to express our gratitude to a number of individuals who have made this journal possible.

Special thanks to Christian Life College in Mount Prospect, Illinois (Chicago area) for their generous permission to reprint articles that originally appeared in their journal Basileia. Their assistance in helping to locate the authors of these articles is also noteworthy.

Special thanks also goes to all those who have given specific permissions to use their articles or volumes including Pastor Jeffrey McGregor of Resurrection Life Assembly, Seattle for his book Speaking in Other Tongues: A Scholarly Defense (also look for the condensed version of this massive work, Tongues: The Answer to the Debate); Pastor Michael Peters of Christ the King Covenant Church, Webster Groves, Missouri, for his book In Defense of Charismatics; Author Robert Graves for his book Praying In the Spirit; and those whose articles will be appearing in this and future issues: Professor Larry Taylor, Professor William Pankey, Author Phillip Yancey, and Professor Richard Riss.

Thanks to the many individuals who have offered encouragement, vision, and advice in seeing this dream of “Biblical teaching from a Pentecostal/charismatic perspective” begin to come to life. To name just a few: Timothy Beals, Roger C. Mock, Pastor Ron and Joy Messelink, David Driggs, Kevin Williams, Pastor Daryl Merrill, Robert DeVries, Wayne Wachsmuth, and Martin Emerson.
