Aaron Gabriel Ross serves as Chief of Staff at the Museum of the Bible in Washington, D.C., USA. He is also a Visiting Lecturer of Theology at the London School of Theology, UK.
Ross has provided a critical and constructive account of faith through the lens of pneumatology. Engaging with Paul Tillich, the New Perspective on Paul and the theology of faith, it takes the conversation in a different, holistic, and participatory direction using Pentecostal dialogue partners. This is a book that should be read by biblical and systematic theologians, especially those who are sympathetic to Pentecostal and Charismatic theology. However, given its engagement with a range of interdisciplinary and ecumenical sources, there is much that contributes to the wider theological academy. I would encourage students and scholars to read this book. It may change your understanding of the concept of faith in relation to the Christian life! * Mark J. Cartledge, London School of Theology, UK * Ross offers a refreshing and ground-breaking intervention into the discussions regarding the nature of faith. This is a generative and creative theological work that unfreezes dichotomies such as faith and works, cognition and emotion. Ross envisions a dynamic and holistic understanding of faith as being in Christ by being in the Spirit. Out of this vision flows a paradigm of faith that is relational, participatory and transformative. * Cheryl Bridges Johns, United Theological Seminary, USA *
