Abstract
Amos Yong's book is not only a valuable contribution to but also represents an important development in Pentecostal theology. His work brings Pentecostalism into conversation with concerned individuals throughout the world who are dealing with various large scale cultural and social crises. Yong constructs an interpretation of Pentecostalism in response to the predicament of late modernity, which he sees as marked by questions concerning the existence and possibility of experiencing the supernatural, the implied relativism of religious and cultural pluralism, and the autonomy of science and its claims about truth and reality. In this space allotted to me, I do two things: (1) give a brief overview, interspersed with commentary, on the salient features of Yong's book and (2) suggest that the agenda of Pentecostal theology be broadened to include treatment of other global issues such as the globalization of capitalism, mass migration, and war and violence.
