The purpose of APTS Press and the Asian Journal of Pentecostal Studies is to encourage serious theological thinking and articulation by Pentecostals/Charismatics and dialogue with other Christian traditions in Asia to stimulate creative contextualization of the Christian faith; and to provide a means for Pentecostals/Charismatics to share their theological reflection.

Furthermore, the Press and the Journal, seek to address issues that impact Asian churches with the conviction that the end goal of academic reflection is to serve the Body of Christ.
