Recenzii
"Science and the Spirit should be required reading not only for undergraduates committed to various Pentecostal traditions, but to all who have an interest in the engagement of faith traditions with the sciences in a manner that respects and deepens the appreciation of both while denying neither." Ralph W. Hood, Jr., The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga"Argues for a healthy relationship between science and Pentecostalism." Denis Lamoureux, University of Alberta"This book illustrates something of the current, very preliminary, engagement that is beginning to take place between Pentecostal Christians and 'science' very broadly defined. It is a significant project." Douglas Jacobsen, Messiah College
