The Word and Spirit Commentary on the New Testament series emphasizes how we listen alongside ancient audiences for the Spirit's voice in our time and contexts. "A wonderfully readable initiation into the letters of Colossians and Philemon. Holly Beers is a trustworthy and winsome guide to the history, text, and theology of these New Testament letters. Her writing is fresh and insightful, warm and inviting. The accent on hearing the text within the pentecostal tradition is a welcome lens for understanding and contemplation." --Jeannine K. Brown, Bethel Seminary, Saint Paul, Minnesota "From the early days of Christianity, Spirit-filled followers of Jesus have understood the Bible as a book of power, not just a relic of history or a collection of sound advice. Beers does more than recognize that fact; she lives, moves, and has her being in that reality. She speaks the language. She has created a series and written a commentary that emerge from a world infused with the Spirit. Well informed. Nuanced. And at times downright colloquial. A careful reader may feel the Spirit wind blowing across these pages." --David B. Capes, Lanier Theological Library "Beers offers a clear and thoughtful exploration of Paul's letters, balancing diverse interpretations while uncovering each passage's core meaning. Drawing on textual nuances and insights from the pentecostal tradition, this commentary invites readers into a deeper engagement with Paul's message of faith and discipleship for today." --Rodolfo Galvan Estrada III, Vanguard University "Beers brings two undervalued Pauline letters out of the shadows and reestablishes their contributions to God's redemptive plan for humans and the renewal of creation. Beers establishes that in Colossians the ever-pastoral pastor Paul links his cosmic Christology to daily discipleship. In discussing Philemon, she extends Paul's specific exhortation toward communal embodiment of restorative hospitality. Beers reminds readers that gospel-centered theology prepares a path for flourishing Christian relationships and communities." --Martin Mittelstadt, Evangel University
