Abstract
Each of the essays in this section, except the last one, was presented at the annual meeting of the Society for Pentecostal Studies (SPS) jointly held with the Wesleyan Theological Society at Duke University Divinity School, 13-15 March 2008. The conference theme, "Sighs, Signs, and Significance: Pentecostal and Wesleyan Explorations of Creation and Science," reflected an earnest effort on the part of both societies to take up important questions at the science-and-theology interface. There has been a growing realization that such matters can no longer be ignored by scholars and theologians working in these traditions.
