**Amos Yong** ([Chinese](/source/Chinese_language): 楊偉明; born July 26, 1965)[2] is a Malaysian-American [Pentecostal](/source/Pentecostal) [theologian](/source/Theologian) and Professor of Theology and Mission at [Fuller Theological Seminary](/source/Fuller_Theological_Seminary).[1] He has been Dean of School of Theology and School of Intercultural Studies at Fuller Seminary, since July 1, 2019.[3]

## Biography

Yong was born in [Malaysia](/source/Malaysia) and immigrated to the [United States](/source/United_States).[4] His Ph.D. from [Boston University](/source/Boston_University) is in [religion](/source/Religion) and [theology](/source/Theology), and he has a B.A. from [Bethany College](/source/Bethany_University), an M.A. from [Western Evangelical Seminary](/source/Western_Evangelical_Seminary), and an M.A. from [Portland State University](/source/Portland_State_University).[2] He was the J. Rodman Williams Professor of Theology and Dean at [Regent University](/source/Regent_University) School of Divinity ([Virginia Beach, VA](/source/Virginia_Beach%2C_Virginia)) until June 2014. Since July 1, 2014, Yong has been Professor of Theology & Mission at Fuller Theological Seminary and director of the Fuller Theological Seminary's Center for Missiological Research. He was Dean of School of Theology and School of Intercultural Studies at Fuller Seminary, effective July 1, 2019.[3]

Amos came to [Fuller Theological Seminary](/source/Fuller_Theological_Seminary) in 2014 as a Professor of Missions and was named the Dean for the School of Intercultural Studies in 2019.[5]

## Pentecostal Studies

In the last decade, Amos has become one of the most prolific writers among [Pentecostal](/source/Pentecostalism) theologians in the academy. He has devoted scholarly monographs to interreligious dialogue and comparative theology, global Pentecostal theology, theology of disability, [political theology](/source/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](/source/Trinity) theological method and [hermeneutic](/source/Hermeneutics) that provides the conceptual basis for all his other work. In it he demonstrates his ability to bring a Pentecostal account of [pneumatology](/source/Pneumatology_(Christianity)) to bear on a number of perennial theological and philosophical concerns, and thus shows that he is not interested only in parochial Pentecostal issues.

He is a former president of the [Society for Pentecostal Studies](/source/Society_for_Pentecostal_Studies) (2008 – 09) and co-edited its journal, *[PNEUMA](/source/Pneuma%3A_The_Journal_of_the_Society_for_Pentecostal_Studies)* from 2011 – 2014.[6] He was the founding co-chair for the Pentecostal-Charismatic Movements Group for the [American Academy of hope and Religion](https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=American_Academy_of_hope_and_Religion&action=edit&redlink=1) (2006 – 2011) and is co-editor of five [monograph](/source/Monograph) series: Pentecostal Manifestos ([Eerdmans](/source/Eerdmans)), Studies in Religion, Theology and Disability (Baylor), CHARIS: Christianity & Renewal – Interdisciplinary Studies ([Palgrave Macmillan](/source/Palgrave_Macmillan)), Missiological Engagements ([IVP Academic](/source/IVP_Academic)), and Mission in Global Community ([Baker Academic](/source/Baker_Academic)).
