About the Editors Charles Peter Wagner received his B.S. at Rutgers University, 1952; M.Div. at Fuller Theological Seminary, 1955; Th.M. at Princeton Theological Seminary, 1962; M.A. at Fuller Seminary School of World Mission, 1968 and his Ph.D. at the University of Southern California in 1977. From 1956-1971 the Wagners were missionaries with the South American Mission and Andes Evangelical Mission where they ministered in Bolivia. In 1971 Wagner became a professor of Church Growth at the School of Intercultural Studies, a part of Fuller Theological Seminary. He and Donald McGavran established the school as a popular and influential organization within the Evangelical, Pentecostal and Charismatic movements internationally. In 1981 Wagner replaced McGavran as head of the faculty. Wagner retired from his position there in 1998 to focus on his own areas of ministry. In 1982 Wagner teamed up with John Wimber, a founder of the Vineyard Movement, to create a new course at Fuller called "Signs, Wonders and Church Growth". Since that point, Wagner has been formally associated with Charismatic teaching and theology. Wagner describes himself as a Charismatic Evangelical. During the 1990s he also taught a Sunday School class with a strong focus on the charismatic gifts, known as "120 Fellowship", at Lake Avenue Church in Pasadena, California. Wagner is the founder of Global Harvest Ministries, and co-founder of the World Prayer Center. Wagner and his wife, Doris, live in Colorado Springs and since 2006 they have attended Dutch Sheet's "Freedom Church". Wagner is the author of more than 30 books, including Engaging the Enemy, Wrestling with Dark Angels, and How to Have a Healing Ministry in Any Church. Dr. Pablo A. Deiros is Argentine professor of history and pastor of the Central Baptist Church in Buenos Aires. Deiros did his theological studies at the International Baptist Theological Seminary and the Evangelical Institute of Superior Studies in Buenos Aires. He is an active participant in the FTL. His publications are abundant and diverse, and one sees in them a concern not only for history and theology, but also for pastoral work. Although he continues to be a part of the theological faculty of the Baptist Seminary of Buenos Aires, he also serves as visiting professor at Fuller Theological Seminary and the Horner Center for Lifelong Learning. In a three-volume projected work, Deiros looks at history from his latest pastoral experience. The first volume appeared in 1998, The Work of the Spirit in the History of the Church. This book is a historical account of the Christian witness that attempts to follow the focus of the Acts of the Apostles. In this "history," Deiros emphasized the importance of spiritual gifts such as prophecy and signs and wonders, besides devoting major attention to the nonorthodox movements and an emphasis on the work of the Spirit throughout history.
