The well-deserved gratitude of a gallery of great authors is mixed with a rich array of their scholarship, resting on a depth of research. The breadth of interests reflects Stronstad’s own, and the result is a treasure trove of material—dig deep and enjoy!”

“This fine anthology celebrates and builds upon the work of the distinguished Canadian Pentecostal scholar, Roger Stronstad, whose ground-breaking publications inspired a fresh generation of Pentecostal theologians, many of whom are represented here. The book has been skillfully put together to provide thoughtful insights into a range of New Testament books and themes so as to become, in its own right, a coherent and valuable contribution to the field.”


—William K. Kay, Emeritus Professor, Wrexham Glyndwr University





“This festschrift celebrates Roger Stronstad through fresh essays from seasoned scholars focusing on St. Luke’s pneumatology and also placing St. Luke in conversation with other Old Testament and New Testament books. The result is a themed smorgasbord of rich insights into pneumatology and Lukan studies. A delightful feast for those interested in Lukan studies and Pentecostal scholarship.”


—Kenneth J. Archer, Professor of Theology and Pentecostal Studies, Southeastern University

“For anyone who wants to know anything about the living legacy of Roger Stronstad, the Lukan corpus—and in particular, Lukan pneumatology—and its interaction with other New Testament writings, or the development of Pentecostal theology and praxis, this is a ‘must read’! Twenty-one Pentecostal scholars each bring their own scholarship and perspective to a related topic. The highly readable style ensures that this will be a fitting and inimitably Pentecostal contribution to Christian studies for a long time to come.”
