ooooo, looks quite interesting!
i get why they have the broad "evangelical tradition..." volume, but i would hope they would break down some of the further traditions within that tradition.
But overall, i love their approach...have you read any of them, Martha?
I like Apples. Especially Honeycrisp.
I've read 9 & 12 - both solid, introductory books. Several authors I recognize as solid in other things they have written. I suspect they would be quite willing to subdivide Evangelical and include Pentecostal if an appropriate author approached them.
