I have spent more than thirty years of my life in charismatic churches, and these reflections try to summarize that experience. This particular series is not an attempt to justify the continuation of the gifts theologically as I have done that elsewhere and in my debate with Dan Phillips. Nor is this post intended to persuade you – I want you to be persuaded by the Bible, not mere experience! Instead, here I want to simply answer the question, “What... Read more

Mahaney, Mark Dever and Ligon Duncan). What I didn’t understand was the... Read more
Reformissionary: quotes and links to the New York Times about Tim Keller : “An important lesson that Dr. Keller said he had tried to convey to other pastors is that the hard sell rarely works in the city.

This applies in our church life, in our home life and in our life at work. Different jobs suit different people of course- we all have differing abilities.
