Transforming Renewal

The book explores the need for theologies of renewal within Pentecostal and charismatic movements, focusing on ecumenical dialogue between David Watson and Thomas Merton. It examines the theological foundations of these movements through the lives of influential figures, highlighting how they understood the triune God’s work. Set against contemporary renewalist theology, it proposes constructive ideas for future renewal theology. Utilizing receptive ecumenism, the study aims to foster conversations that advance ecumenical dialogue, appealing to theologians, renewal advocates, and Merton scholars.
