Frank Macchia and Amos Yong will be keynote speakers at the next workshop meeting of the German "Interdisciplinary Work Group on Pentecostalism". They will present papers on the workshop topic "Pneumatology from Pentecostal Perspectives". Michael Welker and Michael Bergunder will give responses.
Introduction
The "Interdisciplinary Workgroup on
Pentecostalism" was founded at the University of Heidelberg in 2004. It
networks scholars from different fields of cultural studies and
theology in German-speaking countries. Regular workshops are hosted in
Heidelberg, consisting of presentations on a general topic and diverse
project presentations of workgroup members.
This workshop's general theme has a theological focus on Pneumatology. With Prof. Frank
Macchia and Prof. Amos Yong two prominent Pentecostal theologians will be
presenting their work and will enter into discussion with Heidelberg
systematic theologians. A panel discussion will conclude this debate.
Since the work group comprises theologians from Reformed, Lutheran and
Pentecostal traditions, we expect an enlightening and challenging
theological exchange on Pneumatology.
