Wolfgang Vondey is Associate Professor of Systematic Theology and Director of the Centre for Renewal Studies at Regent University, Virginia Beach, USA.
‘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.

This 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.
