Textul de pe ultima copertă

“Not even the most imaginative novelist could have imagined the world created by the coronavirus pandemic. The face of the church also changed radically, challenging it to reinvent itself. In this volume, South African scholars meet these theological, practical, pastoral, liturgical, and institutional challenges from a Pentecostal perspective. They concentrate on the various dimensions of spirituality and pastoral care in the 'virtual church.'  The work contributes to rethinking the 'new normal' of the post-Covid-19 church."
Marius Nel, Research Chair - Ecumenism: Pentecostalism and Neo-Pentecostalism, North West University, South Africa
"A very relevant book! And another opportunity for people living in the North to learn from the South. The South African churches are doing a great job in the midst of a difficult economic situation."
