Critics Review

‘Vondey is a sure guide to the global phenomenon of Pentecostalism and its primary and scholarly resources, expertly sifting out the complexities of the many tongues of the movement and charting helpful frameworks to understanding and engaging with it. Beginner students and informed observers alike will benefit from this perspicacious study.’ - Amos Yong, Biola University, USA. – Amos YongThis book by Vondey does exactly what it says on the cover. It provides an introductory text for students of theology and religion who wish to find out more about the nature and significance of Pentecostalism. Given its size and scope, it covers pretty much all the ground that one would expect to see covered in a satisfactory textbook. – Mark J. Cartledge, University of Birmingham, UK * Theology *
