African Pentecostal Theology: Modality, Disciplinarity, and Decoloniality explores research methodology, theological disciplines, and contextualization as important aspects in the process of studying Pentecostal theology in an African context. Mookgo Solomon Kgatle outlines different data collection and data analysis methods, including the skills of interpreting and presenting research findings in a responsible manner. This book illustrates that Pentecostal theology, given its pneumatological approach, goes beyond conventional theological disciplines in transdisciplinary research. The development of knowledge in African Pentecostal Theology should recognize African Indigenous Knowledge Systems (AIKS), African oral and traditional cultures, and African indigenous languages to be relevant to Africans. Pentecostal theologians from different theological disciplines in Africa and globally will find this book a worthwhile read.

Reviews for African Pentecostal Theology: Modality, Disciplinarity, and Decoloniality

This book is an important contribution to the discipline of African Pentecostal studies by spelling out the uniqueness of the discipline and providing academic frameworks and methods of gaining a better understanding to African Pentecostalism. The book should be read by all students and academics who are seeking for advanced intellectual methods of studying African Pentecostalism. --Collium Banda, North-West University This is essential reading for southern African Pentecostal theologians, for whom this book is a treasure trove of useful information and a timely reminder that scholarship is not undertaken in a vacuum. --Allan Anderson, University of Birmingham
