"Strange Fire": Can the Church Be both Evangelical and Charismatic?

What are people saying about "Strange Fire"? "There is a desperate need in the Pentecostal/Charismatic movement to rethink how and why we do what we do. Allan Gravely has given us a tool to begin thinking through some of the vexing issues surrounding the practice of Pentecost. At the same time, he gives a solid defense for how the movement still has much to contribute to the body of Christ. I hope that leaders interested in a ministry of the Word and the Spirit will grapple with the ideas contained herein and that doing so will help us all to live out what it truly means to be Spirit-baptized." —Ryan Jackson, PhD (Cambridge). Lead Pastor, The Capital Church, Garner, NC. "Allan Gravely presents a most thorough analysis of what it means for the Spirit to manifest itself in the life of a believer. This is an exciting journey for the curious Christian, for the book seeks not to argue the Pentecostal/Charismatic viewpoint or its opposite. Instead, in the spirit of Heb. 4:12, 'it penetrates even to dividing' the nuances of these perspectives, helping the reader to 'judge the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.' The end of the journey is a well-reasoned synthesis that hews to unity, not division."—Max Heine, Editorial Director, Overdrive Magazine
