This month Simo interviews Dr Keith Warrington. Keith has been a major figure in the world of Pentecostal scholarship and in the life of Pentecostal churches both in the UK and further afield for many years. More recently he has established teaching programmes for church leaders, especially in the Majority World, as well as being engaged in a programme entitled Word and Spirit which he and his wife, Judy, began in 2014, with the purpose of helping Christians engage with the Bible in ways that are transformative and enjoyable.
