Education Commission

Dr. John Carter, Phd
Chairman

 The Education Commission was formed when the PWF leadership recognized the need for strong Pentecostal theology to steer and shape the future generation of Spirit-filled leaders. The World Alliance for Pentecostal Theological Education (WAPTE) was appointed as the Educational Commission. WAPTE is a global cooperative fellowship of Pentecostal theological associations and institutions that focuses on promoting the development of theological education and leadership training.  Dr. John Carter who is the chair of both WAPTE and the PWF Education Commission organizes theological consultations for the PWF’s triennial conferences.  At the consultations theologians and researchers discuss issues of importance to global Pentecostalism hence, framing concrete distinctives for Pentecostal doctrines and beliefs.
