A Nondualistic Pentecostal Theology

Exploring Dialectics and Becoming through Amos Yong and Slavoj Žižek

Description

A Nondualistic Pentecostal Theology: Exploring Dialectics and Becoming through Amos Yong and Slavoj Žižek invites readers to consider a dialectical theology for the third millennium, grounded in nonduality and expressed from a pentecostal perspective. Amos Yong has laid a valuable foundation for such an approach, though his work stops short of fully achieving nondualism. Despite highlighting diverse voices within pentecostal theology through Pentecost-inspired themes, systematic complexity, and interdisciplinary input, Yong still speaks of God in dualistic terms. This work identifies missed opportunities to move beyond dualism and addresses them through a coherent nondualistic framework. With the aid of Slavoj Žižek, the pentecostal imagination reconfigures the essential themes of Yong's theology, resulting in a fresh take on pentecostal theology committed to the richness of connection and the expansive potential of becoming.
