Light for the Journey (Revised Edition): An Introduction to the Theology of the IPHC

Light for the Journey: An Introduction to the Theology of the International Pentecostal Holiness Church

What does it mean to live, believe, and minister as part of the Pentecostal Holiness tradition? Light for the Journey offers an accessible and thorough introduction to the fourteen Articles of Faith that define the International Pentecostal Holiness Church — grounded in Scripture and shaped by history.

This fully revised third edition opens with an expanded historical and theological introduction that traces the roots of IPHC theology, setting the stage for an in-depth exploration of its core convictions: justification by faith, sanctification, the baptism of the Holy Spirit, divine healing, and the promised return of Jesus Christ — and much more.

Written for both ministerial students pursuing IPHC credentials and those eager to deepen their walk with God, this book is designed to be studied with an open Bible and an open heart. Whether in personal devotion, a home group, or in the academic setting, Light for the Journey equips believers to rightly handle the word of truth and faithfully share the Good News of God’s grace with their families, congregations, and communities.A trusted resource for over two decades — now expanded for a new generation of disciples.

Dr. A. D. Beacham, Jr. is a former General Superintendent of the International Pentecostal Holiness Church. As a denominational leader, pastor, professor, and retired U.S. Army chaplain, he brings a rare combination of leadership, theological training, and pastoral experience to his writing.
