Scholarship in Service of the Church
The Journal of Biblical Pentecostalism is an online, peer-reviewed academic journal published by the faculty of Bridges Christian College & Seminary. It's written by scholars, for the body of Christ—and it's completely free.
Our Mission
The Journal of Biblical Pentecostalism presents biblical exegesis, ministerial training literature, and research of church history through a Pentecostal hermeneutic.
Our Goals
- To present exegesis of the Scriptures with a Pentecostal hermeneutic to help the church understand the Bible and its theological principles.
- To demonstrate the unity of the Scriptures through intertextual interpretation of the Old Testament and New Testament.
- To apply Scriptural principles to a Pentecostal, practical ministry environment.
- To present research of the roots and traditions of the Pentecostal movement throughout church history.
