Our Faith and Fellowship

Carlson writes with real denominational authority — he later led the Assemblies of God as General Superintendent — and this slim volume is a clear, accessible introduction to Pentecostal doctrine and the movement's early history. It is a useful resource for Assemblies of God members wanting to understand their own tradition, but the 1977 publication date means it reflects none of the denomination's development over the past five decades. A solid historical document; less useful as a current theological reference.
