Lee advocates a theology of hope, essentially different from the Moltmann version on which the idea is developed. Lee shows how Cho’s message, particularly in its promise of a saved healthy, happy and prosperous life (the Threefold Blessing), was the antidote to the events that had ravaged the Korean peninsula in the 1950s. At the same time, Asian Pentecostal scholars might also need a greater appreciation for both the diversity and richness of their cultural and religious past… . [They] have found both culturally and biblically acceptable alternatives to, and adaptations from, the practices of their ancient religions and are seeking to provide answers to the needs of their own context. –Allan H. Anderson, University of Birmingham, England (From the Foreword)
