"Paul Ingram's commentary on the lectionary readings will have
practical value for anyone preparing to preach. However, he has
written in a way that deserves a far wider audience."
--John B. Cobb Jr., author of Jesus' Abba: The God Who Has Not
Failed
"Ingram's Tongues of Fire is simultaneously an interpretation of
Pentecost and an explanation of process theology that invites
scholars to explore biblical and theological themes and faithful
Christians to read key biblical texts devotionally. Somehow,
through Ingram's clarity and style, Scripture and process theology
come alive again. Process theology enlivens the focal Scripture in
each chapter, while the Pentecost event imparts concrete and lively
relevance to process theology."
--Nancy Howell, St. Paul School of Theology
"Paul Ingram's rich meditations on Christian Pentecost Scriptures
embody his many years of academic study as a Lutheran scholar of
world religions. These Ordinary Time reflections, framed by process
theology, call the reader toward compassion and harmony with all
the cosmic living. Ingram says that, though there be tragedy,
though faithful lives might end on a cross, this will not be the
final word. Here is an inspiring, thoughtful, and hopeful book
indeed!"
--Douglas E. Oakman, Pacific Lutheran University
