    include Kenneth J. Archer, “The Spirit and Theological Interpretation: A
    Pentecostal Strategy,” Cyberjournal for Pentecostal-Charismatic Research

  3. Preliminarily, see, for example, Koo Dong Yun, The Holy Spirit and Ch’i
    (Qi): A Chiological Approach to Pneumatology (Eugene, Ore.: Pickwick
    Publications, 2011), which accomplishment highlights one of the reasons
    for my ongoing work in interreligious encounter and dialogue, theologies
    of religions, and comparative theology, for example, Yong, Hospitality and
    the Other: Pentecost, Christian Practices, and the Neighbor , Faith Meets
    Faith (Maryknoll, NY: Orbis Books, 2008).
