“The divine wind rustles, hovers, and swoops ‘over the face of the waters’, touches the created orders and catches the world up in the divine witness”
I sat down with Amos Yong to discuss his new book , Mission after Pentecost: The Witness of the Spirit from Genesis to Revelation. We talk about what underpins his prolific and widespread writings, what is gained from approaching theology with pneumatology in the foreground, his approach to mission as an opening up to others, his commentary on the Gerasene demoniac and what it means for the church to participation in the mission of the Spirit – when that mission is one of deliverance both cosmic and socio-political, and much more.
Amos Yong is Dean of the School of Theology and the School of Intercultural Studies and Professor of Theology and Mission at Fuller Theological Seminary. Some of his books include, Spirit of Love: A Trinitarian Theology of Grace, The Bible, Disability and the Church, In the Days of Caesar: Pentecostalism and Political Theology, Hospitality and the Other, Theology and Down Syndrome, Discerning the Spirit(s): A Pentecostal-Charismatic Contribution to Christian Theology of Religions, and Renewing Christian Theology: Systematics for a Global Christianity, with Jonathan A. Anderson. He has also authored 200 (and counting) scholarly articles in a wide range of peer-reviewed journals, edited book collections, and other venues. Dr. Yong is past president of the Society for Pentecostal Studies.
