This unique and extraordinary collection of essays helps correct the misunderstanding that any Christian worship is altogether non-liturgical, even pentecostal worship. Taken together, the contributions establish the existence of implicit liturgical forms in various instantiations of global pentecostalism, past and present—forms like preaching, singing, sacraments, and prayer. One particular strength of the book is its use of historical, empirical, and constructive-theological analyses. The result is both claims about pentecostal worship that are grounded in actual grassroots practice and imaginations about how pentecostal worship can realize its full potential. A diverse group of authors collaborate to provide insights into topics from classical pentecostalism in North America to ritual practices in Kenya to pentecostal features of the Welsh Revival to proposals about a theology of the altar in pentecostalism. The rare blend of multiple theological sub-disciplines in this collection encourages systematic theologians to rely more heavily on case studies and encourage practical theologians not to stop at statistics and description alone. The same blend renders the book valuable to a wide range of students and specialists.

这个独特而非凡的散文集有助于纠正任何基督教崇拜完全是非礼仪崇拜，甚至是五旬节崇拜的误解。总而言之，这些贡献确立了隐含的礼仪形式存在于全球五旬节派过去和现在的各种实例中——例如讲道、歌唱、圣礼和祈祷等形式。这本书的一个特别优势是它使用了历史、经验和建设性神学分析。结果是基于实际基层实践的关于五旬节崇拜的主张和关于五旬节崇拜如何实现其全部潜力的想象。从北美古典五旬节派到肯尼亚的仪式实践，再到威尔士复兴的五旬节派特征，再到关于五旬节派祭坛神学的提案，不同的作者团体合作提供了见解。本集中多个神学子学科的罕见融合鼓励系统神学家更多地依赖案例研究，并鼓励实用神学家不要仅仅停留在统计和描述上。同样的融合使这本书对广泛的学生和专家都很有价值。本集中多个神学子学科的罕见融合鼓励系统神学家更多地依赖案例研究，并鼓励实用神学家不要仅仅停留在统计和描述上。同样的融合使这本书对广泛的学生和专家都很有价值。本集中多个神学子学科的罕见融合鼓励系统神学家更多地依赖案例研究，并鼓励实用神学家不要仅仅停留在统计和描述上。同样的融合使这本书对广泛的学生和专家都很有价值。
