Rev. Pamela F. Walter Engelbert, Ph.D., is a practical theologian and research/writer who is ordained with the Assemblies of God. She has served with her husband as co-pastors in the U.S. and as missionaries to Mongolia. In more recent years, they have returned periodically to Mongolia to teach block courses at the Mongolian Assemblies Bible Training Center (accredited with APTS). Pam is a graduate from Fuller (MDiv, 2010) and earned her PhD in Pastoral Care/Counseling from Luther Seminary (2017). Holding a Grief Support Specialist Certificate from the University of Wisconsin and a certificate of Death and Grief Studies from the Center for Loss and Life Transition in Fort Collins, Colorado, she companions others on their grief journeys by way of grief support groups conducted through a local nonprofit, nonreligious bereavement center. Pam is trained in Marshall Rosenberg's Compassionate Communication (nonviolent communication), which she has presented to various groups in churches and non-profit organizations. Her ongoing interests are grief/loss/dying, compassionate communication, violence against women, and pentecostal theological praxis of suffering and healing. She outlines a pentecostal theological praxis of suffering and healing of presence in Who is Present in Absence: A Pentecostal Theological Praxis of Suffering and Healing. In her most recent publication See My Body, See Me: A Pentecostal Perspective of Healing from Sexual Violence (Wipf & Stock 2024), she utilizes qualitative research to describe participants’ healing journeys from sexual violence and then provides three pentecostal healing praxes as ways for the church to respond to survivors of sexual violence. Pam currently lives with her husband in Colorado.
