“My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me.” --John

Frank D. Macchia argues that the Son of God baptized (and continues
to baptize) humanity in the Spirit by pouring forth the Spirit on
the Day of Pentecost. All four Gospels and the book of Acts
describe how the Son is sent of the Father and empowered by the
Spirit to fulfil this mission; Macchia in turn claims that Christ
succeeds by incorporating others into himself and into the love of
the Father. The Spirit-Baptized Church proposes a richly
pneumatological ecclesiology that is dominated by a Pentecostal
confessional concern, while also open to a larger ecumenical
conversation. The volume focuses not only on the dogmatic
(Trinitarian) foundations and election processes of the
Spirit-baptized church, but also on its marks and witnessing
practices. As an exceptionally detailed study of the
Spirit-baptismal metaphor, this volume is a valuable resource for
scholars of ecclesiology, Pentecostalism, and systematic theology.

From childhood, we are trained to associate the color red with negative and even dangerous situations.

Every television reporter knows when the red light is on, you are on. Red means go. Playing off this insider phrase, Elictia Hart-now a wife, mother, and pastorpassionately shares how God transformed the red flags in her life into victorious banners for personal growth, a deeper faith, and a richer sense of her purpose for his
kingdom.
This book will help Christians locate where they are spiritually
and show them how to grow into the next stage of spiritual
development.

After an explosion of conversions to Pentecostalism over the
past three decades, tens of millions of Nigerians now claim that
"Jesus is the answer." But if Jesus is the answer, what is the
question? What led to the movement's dramatic rise and how can we
make sense of its social and political significance? In this
ambitiously interdisciplinary study, Ruth Marshall draws on years
of fieldwork and grapples with a host of important
thinkers--including Foucault, Agamben, Arendt, and Benjamin--to
answer these questions.
To account for the movement's success, Marshall explores how
Pentecostalism presents the experience of being born again as a
chance for Nigerians to realize the promises of political and
religious salvation made during the colonial and postcolonial eras.
Her astute analysis of this religious trend sheds light on
Nigeria's contemporary politics, postcolonial statecraft, and the
everyday struggles of ordinary citizens coping with poverty,
corruption, and inequality.
Pentecostalism's rise is truly global, and" Political
Spiritualities" persuasively argues that Nigeria is a key case in
this phenomenon while calling for new ways of thinking about the
place of religion in contemporary politics.
Get Your Foundation Right—Then Build Toward the Sky!
A building contractor has a top priority every time he begins a construction project: to get the foundation right. He knows that’s the key to the stability and endurance of the structure he is building. If his crew lays the foundation wrong, the rest of the building might ultimately look good—but it will always have problems and will possibly never fulfill its purpose for being constructed in the first place.
That same principle is true as you build your life in Christ. You will never build strong or last long in your quest to fulfill what God has put you on the earth to accomplish unless you first focus on laying your spiritual foundation on the rock-solid truths of His Word.
In this book, author Rick Renner provides the scriptural “mortar and brick” that defines the six fundamental doctrines listed in Hebrews 6:1,2—precisely the ingredients you need to lay a sound and stable foundation for the structure called your life in Christ.
Do you recognize a need to fortify your foundation? If so, you’re holding a mighty tool in your hands right now that will help you do just that. The rich truths found within these pages will strengthen your foundation so it can hold you steady and stable as your life grows into a mighty edifice that displays God’s glory and power—just as He has always intended!

The growth of Christianity in the global South is one of the most
important religious stories of the last decade. In no branch of
Christianity has that growth been more rapid than Pentecostalism.
There are over 100 million Pentecostals in Africa, and Pentecostal
practices infuse Catholic, Anglican, and Independent churches. In
the traditional Catholic stronghold of Latin America,
Pentecostalism now vies with Catholicism for the soul of the
continent. And the largest Pentecostsal church in the world, with
over 800,000 members, is in Seoul. In To the Ends of the Earth,
Allan Anderson offers a historical and theological examination of
the growth of global Pentecostalism. Examining such issues as
revivalism, healing, gender, worship, and globalization, Anderson
seeks to show how the growth of global Pentecostalism is changing
the face of Christianity as a whole.
Pentecostalism-Africa's fastest growing form of Christianity-is
known for displacing that which came before. Yet anthropologist
Devaka Premawardhana witnessed neither massive growth nor dramatic
rupture in the part of Mozambique where he worked. His research
opens a new paradigm for the study of global Christianity, one
centered on religious fluidity and existential mobility, and on how
indigenous traditions remain vibrant and influential-even in the
lives of converts. In Faith in Flux, Premawardhana narrates a range
of everyday hardships faced by a rural Makhuwa-speaking
people-snakebites and elephant invasions, chronic illnesses and
recurring wars, disputes within families and conflicts with the
state-to explore how wellbeing sometimes entails not stability but
mobility. In their ambivalent response to Pentecostalism, as in
their historical resistance to sedentarization and other
modernizing projects, the Makhuwa reveal crucial insights about
what it is to be human: about changing as a means of enduring,
becoming as a mode of being, and converting as a way of life.
