Abstract

275 FEEDBACK: PENTECOSTAL MISSIOLOGY Pentecostal Missiology: Moving Beyond Triumphalism to Face the Issues Gary B. McGee Reading through the articles of the Spring 1994 issue of PNEUMA, I was struck by the advances that have been made in the study of Pentecostal missions in the last few years.

Their work reveals the emerging maturation of Pentecostal missiology with each one having either completed a doctorate in missiology or working toward one.
