Amos Yong has become one of the most prolific writers among Pentecostals over the last 25 years. Yet, Logos has nothing by him. Catch a description of him and consider whether this President of Fuller Theological Seminary is one to be ignored:"Amos Yong (Assemblies of God) began a position as assistant professor of theology at Bethany
College of the Assemblies of God in Scotts Valley, CA, in January, 1999, upon receipt of his Ph.D.
from Boston University in religious studies and theology. He holds M.A.'s from Portland (OR)
State University and Western Evangelical Seminary in Portland and a B.A. from Bethany College,
Santa Cruz, C A He served on the Witness and Life Commission of Ecumenical Ministries of
Oregon in 1994-96 and on the Ecumenical Development Committee of the Attleboro Area
Council of Churches in 1996-98. He has served as assistant copy editor/managing editor of The
Paideia Project (invited and contributed papers of the proceedings of the twentieth World
Congress of Philosophy). His articles and reviews have appeared in several scholarly journals, and
he has lectured at several professional meetings. A licensed minister in the Assemblies of God
since 1987, he served four churches in Californiaand Canada, 1984-86; was Minister of Youth for
the Assembly of God Church, Fairfield, CA, 1981j-88; and was associate pastor of New Beginnings
Christian Fellowship, Mansfield, MA, 1996-98. He was also director and an instructor at Turning
Point Christian Center in Vancouver, WA, 1991-%; and a faculty mentor at Columbia Evangelical
Seminary, Longview, WA, 1990-98." Taken from: Journal of Ecumenical Studies, 35:3-4, Summer-Fall 1998
THE TURN TO PNEUMATOLOGY IN CHRISTIAN
THEOLOGY OF RELIGIONS: CONDUIT OR DETOUR?*"
A simple Google Scholar search identifies 93 books, articles, etc., written or contributed to by Amos Yong. I would think it in the best interests of Logos, Faithlife, et al., to become familiar with and publish the works of Amos Yong. I think your own theological integrity mandates that you both investigate and publish works by any author with such outstanding credits to his name, rather than just ignoring him. Fuller decided Amos Yong is a serious, credible scholar whose voice needed to be heard. I hope Logos comes to the same conclusion.
Thank you for hearing me...
