Overview

This book is the fourth volume in the APTS Press Occasional Papers Series. The first three books are Pentecostals and the Poor: Reflections From the Indian Context by Ivan Satyavrata, For All Peoples: A Biblical Theology of Missions in the Gospels and Acts by Craig S. Keener, and The Versatility of Paul: Artisan Missioner, Community Developer, Pastoral Ed Educator by Robert Banks. All are available through our website, www.aptspress.com. The purpose of this series is to produce smaller books comprised of articles that deal with theological, anthropological, and missiological issues relevant to serving God in Asia. From time to time, other disciplines may also be included. As the title suggests, the books will be published as articles of interest to our readers become available. This book explores the critical role of context in shaping Asian Pentecostal theology and in developing its believers' identity and mandates (or mission) in Asia. With incredible socio-cultural diversity in the region, sample cases are presented at the risk of generalization. While context shapes the beliefs and daily Christian life of Pentecostals, the same context also shapes their self-understanding and life's meaning. I further aim to demonstrate the grassroots nature of Pentecostal spirituality and mission engagement.
