My book, The Holy Spirit, Chi, and the Other has been reviewed by Rev. Dr. Steve Simmons in the Journal of World Christianity.

“If, theologically speaking, we have just emerged from
a Christological century, we are surely entering a pneumatological one.  With the flowering of serious, mature, engaged Pentecostal theology (as in the work of Amos Yong), and the attention it has drawn from such mainstream theologians as Harvey Cox and Jurgen Moltmann, the time for contemporary theologies of the Spirit has definitely arrived.

My second book, The Holy Spirit, Chi and the Other was released last year on October 11, 2011.  To celebrate its publication, I will be posting a series of book reviews which have come out in the past year.  The first review comes from Sheri Kling who reviewed my book in the journal,  Interreligious Dialogue.

“In this worthy addition to inter-religious dialogue and inter-cultural dialogue, Grace Ji-Sun Kim introduces the term “Spirit-Chi” and builds a strong case for her assertion that the Holy Spirit as present in the Christian tradition is more resonant than dissimilar to the Eastern concept of Chi found in Taoism, Hinduism and Buddhism.
