Amos Yong is J. Rodman Williams Professor of Theology at Regent University School of Divinity (Virginia Beach, VA), as well as the director of its doctor of philosophy program. His Ph.D. from Boston University is in religion and theology. He is a former president of the Society for Pentecostal Studies (2008–09) and current co-editor of its journal, PNEUMA. He was the founding co-chair for the Pentecostal-Charismatic Movements Group for the American Academy of Religion (2006–2011), and is co-editor of two monograph series: Pentecostal Manifestos (Eerdmans) and Studies in Religion, Theology and Disability (Baylor). A licensed minister in the Assemblies of God, Yong was born in Malaysia and immigrated to the United States. In the last decade, he has become one of the most prolific writers among pentecostal theologians in the academy. As of 2012, he has devoted scholarly monographs to interreligious dialogue and comparative theology, global pentecostal theology, theology of disability, political theology, dialogue between science and religion, and theology of love. What may be his most important book (Spirit-Word-Community) is an articulation of a trinitarian theological method and hermeneutic that provides the conceptual basis for all of his other work. In it he demonstrates his ability to bring a pentecostal account of pneumatology to bear on a number of perennial theological and philosophical concerns, even as he shows that he is not interested only in parochial pentecostal issues. ==External links==
