  What is the essence of charismatic Christianity, a renewal movement that stresses the Holy Spirit's work, the church's use of spiritual gifts, and the significance of the supernatural? Helen Collins gives a novel summary explanation drawn from the spiritual gifts. Through Scripture and doctrinal reflection, she shows that charismatic spirituality is a coherent, reasonable, and rich tradition with much to offer. 
   
   
   
  Collins demonstrates how practicing spiritual gifts embodies a distinctive theology, making these practices carriers of doctrine. Using the Acts 2 narrative, she summarizes seven key emphases and associated practices: expectancy (prophecy), enchantment (miracles), encounter (healing), expression (testimony), equality (tongues), empowerment (evangelism), and enjoyment (worship). The result is a fresh introduction that is biblical, theologically robust, and practical, helping charismatic students to learn more about themselves and others to understand the movement and what it has to contribute to global theological discussions.

  Acts and the Movement of God -...

  LET GOD DISRUPT YOUR WORLD AND SHOW YOU WHAT HE CAN DO. 
  When we open the book of Acts, we’re struck by the gap between our experience and the movement described in its pages. 
  The book of Acts calls us back to the beginning—to a movement born in obscurity, captivated by God’s grace, devoted to prayer and the spread of his Word. A movement that was bold in persecution, generous in love, alive with God’s presence, and on the move from Jerusalem to the ends of the earth. 
  What if Luke isn’t just telling us, “This is how it was,” but also saying, “This is how it can be”? 
  This book combines insightful commentary with stories and lessons from across the globe, inspiring readers to join the movement of God, as it stretches from where they are to every place and every people.
