Lent is not so much a season for discipline as it is a season for transfiguration, a time for letting ourselves be illumined once again by the hope created by the Gospel. The light of that hope, which shines not only on Tabor but also on Golgotha, shows us the truth of silence, death, obedience, doubt, and repentance. And in that light, we see light—and recognize ourselves for the first time.

In this experimental and critically constructive monograph, Pentecostal theologian Chris Green offers an alternative to the standard Evangelical models of Scripture and scriptural hermeneutics. Instead of beginning with the usual epistemological questions about how the biblical texts can be understood as God’s Word, Green’s work begins with soteriological concerns: how does God use the Scripture in readying the church to fulfill her calling? And how are we to read the Scripture so that we are drawn along by the Spirit into Christlikeness? In three major parts, Green explores the ...

Can everyone really lead? What does that look like? We’re coming from the Kansas Leadership Center, an organization that is publishing a book called When Everyone Leads. Leadership is something you do. Not something you are. Leadership is about putting the challenge at the center and working with other people, not just taking charge. We’ve been sent on a quest. This book inspires us, but how do people actually put it into practice? How does this apply to civic issues? What is clear? What is messy and complicated?

En esta monografía constructiva, el teólogo pentecostal Chris Green ofrece una alternativa a los modelos evangélicos estándar de las Escrituras y a la hermenéutica de las Escrituras. En lugar de comenzar con las preguntas epistemológicas usuales sobre cómo los textos bíblicos pueden ser entendidos como la Palabra de Dios, el trabajo de Green comienza con preocupaciones soteriológicas: ¿cómo usa Dios la Escritura para preparar a la iglesia para cumplir su llamado? ¿Y cómo debemos leer las Escrituras para que seamos arrastrados por el Espíritu a la semejanza de Cristo? Green ...
