WELCOME TO LIFE PACIFIC COLLEGE!
The Life Pacific College community is honored to welcome you to the 45th Annual Meeting of the Society for Pentecostal Studies. We count it a distinct privilege to host scholars representing Spirit-filled disciplines from a wide variety of backgrounds, institutions, experiences, and global locations. The 2015 theme, “Worship, the Arts, and the Spirit” represents both a historical and emerging element of Pentecostalism and the Sprit-filled church. Historically, Pentecostalism always found vibrant and passionate worship a common denominator among our fellowships. Today, redeeming or engaging the arts in new and creative ways for worship, teaching, preaching, and outreach continues to gain ground worldwide.
LPC, founded in 1923 by Aimee Semple McPherson, is Alma Mater to past and present leaders and writers such as double Gold- Medallion author Ron Mehl, Roy Hicks, Jr., Chuck Smith, Jack Hayford, Ralph Moore (founder of the Hope Chapel movement), and Ricky Temple. Especially timely this year is our newly launched Worship Arts and Media major providing a combination of theological education with applied teaching in music, the arts, and worship.
As our distinguished guests, we hope you will enjoy beautiful Southern California, and feel at home on our campus. Our staff are here to make your visit enjoyable and fruitful. May the Lord touch our lives as we seek to deepen our understanding of creative and expressive Spirit-empowered life while advancing His kingdom through biblical and Pentecostal scholarship.
Dr. Jim J. Adams President, Life Pacific College

SELF-GUIDED AZUSA STREET REVIVAL TOUR
With the SPS 2016 annual meeting being in the “cradle” of the Azusa Street Revival, conference attendees will have a unique opportunity to tour key sites of early Pentecostalism in the Los Angeles area—and celebrate the 110th year since the Azusa Street revival!
SPS member Mel Robeck, author of The Azusa Street Mission and Revival, has graciously prepared a self-guided tour for those interested in touring sites like Angelus Temple, the house on North Bonnie Brae Street where revival first broke out in April of 1906, the site where the original Azusa Street Mission stood, and several other interesting locations.
Should you wish to take the tour, you may download a PDF of the 15-page tour here (http://tinyurl.com/azusatour) and take it at your convenience. Blessings for the journey!

THEME: "WORSHIP, THE ARTS, AND THE SPIRIT"
One of the hallmark features of historic and contemporary Pentecostalism is expressive worship. From Azusa Street to Aimee Semple McPherson to Hillsong, Pentecostals have utilized vibrant music and the creative arts to express devotion to God. This passionate worship often unites the various strands of Pentecostalism as they stand together to sing psalms and songs of praise, and is one of the central ways the community participates in the shared expression of the Spirit’s activity. Yet, this creative expression is not simply a feature of Pentecostalism, but is also indicative of what has been described as a broader spirituality, theological value or worldview. It points to an expectation of and appreciation for the experience of the Spirit. When worshipping (not just singing), Pentecostals encounter the divine with a new and deeper awareness of the holy God. This meeting of the Society for Pentecostal Studies provides opportunity for deeper analysis and reflection on the development of the concept of ‘worship,’ the role of the Spirit in community formation, and the place of the arts within Pentecostalism.
PLENARY SESSIONS
The plenary sessions will commence on Thursday evening with a presentation by Professor Linda Ambrose on “Aimee Semple McPherson and the Performed Self.” The creativity of Aimee found a home in the dynamic city of Los Angeles, where she founded Angeles Temple as well as Life Pacific College, host to the 2016 SPS. In the Thursday evening opening plenary session we will explore how Aimee co- opted the arts for the purposes of worship, teaching and evangelism in a way that is probably still unmatched today. This will be followed by Professor John Goldingay on Friday morning presenting on “The Psalms and the Spirit.” Friday evening, Professor Teresa Berger will present on the topic of worship and liturgy. The presidential address will be given by Professor Michael Wilkinson, Professor of Sociology at Trinity Western University, on Saturday morning.
Thursday Evening Plenary Speaker: Linda Ambrose, Ph.D., Laurentian University, Canada
Professor Ambrose teaches Canadian History at Laurentian University, Canada. Her areas of research interest include women’s history, gender history and family history. Publications include A Great Rural Sisterhood: Madge Robertson Watt and the ACWW; Women’s Institutes in Canada: The First One Hundred Years, 1897-1997; as well as numerous journal articles and book chapters on rural women’s organizations and Canadian Pentecostalism. She currently serves as co-editor of the Canadian Journal of Pentecostal-Charismatic Christianity. Linda is an active member of the Society for Pentecostal Studies (SPS).

Friday Morning Plenary Speaker: John Goldingay, Ph.D., David Allan Hubbard Professor of Old Testament, Fuller Theological Seminary, USA
Professor Goldingay teaches Old Testament in the School of Theology at Fuller. Previous to his appointment at Fuller he was Principal of St John’s Theological College in Nottingham, UK. His areas of research interest include Isaiah, Psalms, and Old Testament theology. A prolific author, his most recent publications include the 17-volume Old Testament for Everyone series (Westminster John Knox/SPCK (2010–15) and The Theology of the Book of Isaiah. He has also written commentaries on Daniel, Isaiah, and Psalms. John serves on the Task Force on Biblical Interpretation in the Anglican Communion and the editorial board for the Library of Hebrew Bible/Old Testament Studies.
Friday Afternoon Plenary (Art Exhibit and Latino Pentecostalism session): The Friday afternoon plenary will be conducted in two sections: a movable feast of explorations of art and the Spirit. First, to explore the place of the arts within Pentecostalism, the conference will include an exhibition of artwork. The theme of the show is “Pneumatological Imagination.” The exhibition will feature work by artists from SPS members and friends of the SPS community who have been deliberately seeking the informing of the Holy Spirit in their artistic practice. The exhibition will be held in the Foyer of the Gymnasium and is curated by Esteban (“Steven”) Félix-Jäger.
Following the official opening of the art exhibition, the Friday afternoon plenary will then proceed to the chapel for a bilingual plenary exploring the role of music in Latino “Celestial Fire” by Kathy Self (See Colorbrush.com) Pentecostalism. The title for this session is ‘Cantando Cántico de Sión en Tierra Extraña/Singing the Lord’s Song in a Strange Land: Latino Pentecostal Music and Culture.’ Like the ancient uprooted Hebrews, modern Latino and Latin American Pentecostals learned to sing the Lord’s song in strange lands, including lands of their birth. Beginning with Azusa Street’s “El Fiel Consolador” (Methodist Vicente Mendoza’s translation of “The Comforter Has Come”), Pentecostals layered new meanings on to the received corpus of evangélico hymnody and then set about adding to that corpus. In this process, they sanctified local musical genres and instruments that mainline missionaries disdained as profane; they also freely borrowed from African American music. The new cántico de Sión emerged out of
Page 13 borderlands niches and was carried via hymnal compilations and pilgrim hearts along migratory circuits throughout the Americas. As a result, Scripture was deeply embedded into the Spanish-speaking proletarian and peasant cultures that rode the waves of Revolution, migration, and repatriation. The intensified migration and globalization and tectonic cultural changes of the late twentieth century have both reinforced and eclipsed some of the features of early pneumatic evangélico music. Modern media has made the repertoire of enterprising composers and producers accessible for local performance from Alaska to Tierra del Fuego. Digital media platforms such as YouTube also serve as significant sites for memory, nostalgia, and resistance.
This plenary roundtable will offer a survey of Latino Pentecostal and Charismatic music then and now, using selected musical fragments from each time period to assess critically such issues as 1) borrowings from and contestations over inherited evangélico hymnody; 2) new theological, cultural, “Phoenix Apostolic Orquestra, 1928. Jose Ortega Photograph existential expressions in Collection.” From p. 186 of Migrating Faith: Pentecostalism original Latino in the United States and Mexico in the Twentieth Century by Pentecostal hymnody; 3) Daniel Ramirez. Used by permission. Biblical literacy and performance in Latino musical frames; 4) hymnal compilations and publishing as case studies in Latino agency and dependency; 5) globalized worship music production as deeper experience or as market imposition; as inter-generational site of contestation over nostalgia and “relevance.”
Cantando Cántico de Sión en Tierra Extraña Igual que los antiguos hebreos desarraigados, los pentecostales latinos y latinoamericanos contemporaneos aprendieron a cantar cántico de Jehovah en tierras extrañas, incluyendo sus tierras de oriundo. Comenzando con el himno del Avivamiento de la Calle Azusa, “El Gran Consolador” (traducido por el himnólogo metodista Vicente Mendoza), los pentecostales añadieron nuevos significados al repertorio de himnología heredada, y luego se empeñaron en ensanchar ese repertorio. Para ello, santificaron los profanes géneros y instrumentos musicales que anteriormente habían sido desdeñados por los misioneros protestantes; también encontraron recursos inspiradores en la música afro-americana. El nuevo cántico de Sión que emergió de la zona fronteriza fue llevada en himnarios y corazones peregrinos por los circuitos migratorios de las Américas. De esta manera se arraigaron profundamente el texto bíblico en las culturas proletarias y campesinas de habla española, culturas que fueron llevadas por las olas de
Page 14 revolución, migración, y repatriación. Los grandes cambios culturales derivados de procesos de migración y globalización intensificade durante las últimas décadas han reforzado y eclipsado algunos de los aspectos de la temprana música pentecostal. Las nuevas tecnologías y sistemas de producción musical y litúrgica han llevado el repertorio de los compositores empresariales contemporaneos a los más lejos rincones, desde Alaska a Tierra de Fuego. Pero también sirven las plataformas digitales cómo YouTube cómo sitios importantes para la memoria, la nostalgia, y la resistencia cultural.
Esta sesión plenaria dará un vistazo hacia la música pentecostal/charismatica de ayer y hoy, seleccionado fragmentos musicales de cada periodo histórico para evaluar críticamente tales temas cómo: 1) prestaciones y respuestas contestatorios de y hacia la himnología evangélica heredada; 2) nuevas expresiones teológicas, culturales, y existenciales en la himnología pentecostal original; 3) alfabetismo bíblico y performance dentro de cuadros musicales latinos; 4) compilacion y edición de himnarios cómo casos de estudio sobre la cuestión de agencia y/o dependencia de los latinos; 5) producción litúrgica globalizada cómo propuesta de profundización espiritual o imposición de mercado; y cómo campo de diferenciación y lucha intergeneracional por la nostalgia y/o “relevancia.”
Friday Evening Keynote Address: Teresa Berger, Ph.D., Professor of Liturgical Studies and Thomas E. Golden Jr. Professor of Catholic Theology, Yale ISM & Divinity School, USA
Professor Berger holds doctorates in both liturgical studies and constructive theology. Her areas of research interest lie at the intersection of these disciplines with gender theory, specifically gender history. Publications include Gender Differences and the Making of Liturgical History, Fragments of Real Presence: Liturgical Traditions in the Hands of Women, and a co-edited book, The Spirit in Worship—Worship in the Spirit. Originally from Germany, Professor Berger has been a visiting professor at the Universities of Mainz, Münster, Berlin, and Uppsala. In 2003 she received the distinguished Herbert Haag Prize for Freedom in the Church.
