The thrilling narrative of Rosanna McGonegal Yoder, the Irish
Catholic baby girl, who lived with an Amish woman, Elizabeth Yoder.
All the episodes of "Rosanna of the Amish" are based on fact.
Joseph W. Yoder gives an honest, sympathetic, straightforward
account of the religious, social, and economic customs and
traditions of the Amish.
The Pentecostal experience of Spirit baptism remains an important
topic of discussion more than a century after the inception of the
Pentecostal movement. In Spirit Baptism: The Pentecostal Experience
in Theological Focus David Perry moves beyond traditional debates
by focusing on the meaning and function of the experience within
the Pentecostal community. Grounded in the Pentecostal experience
itself, he explores the meaning of the experience in terms of its
cognitive, effective, constitutive and communicative function. He
demonstrates the enduring value of the experience of Spirit baptism
to the Pentecostal community and emphasises what is centrally
important - a powerful and transformative encounter with the Holy
Spirit.
