Description
by Randy Clark (Author), Mary Healy (Author)
Foundational Teaching from a Charismatic Healing Minister and a Catholic Scholar
International healing minister Randy Clark teams up with Mary Healy, a respected Catholic scholar, to show not only that the gifts of the Spirit still exist today, but that they are not optional; they are the necessary tools God has given for both building his Church and spreading the Gospel.
With wisdom and practical insight, Clark and Healy walk you through biblical texts, dispel misconceptions, and show that there is an endless variety of gifts. They also show how the gifts are not just for a select few, but distributed freely by the Holy Spirit among believers. After laying this foundation, the authors reveal how you can activate the gifts in your own life and use them to benefit others. In this hurting world, you can give people more than just a message--you can help usher them into an encounter with God.

People today need more than a message. They need an encounter with the living God.
The gifts of the Holy Spirit are God's answer to the darkness of our time, able to convince even the most broken and hardened of hearts that God is real, present and active in our lives. And as the Holy Spirit pours out His gifts among believers, He is uniting Christians of every denomination as one Body.
"Be ready to be inspired."--Dr. Tom Litteer, assistant dean, Global Awakening Theological Seminary; faculty mentor, United Theological Seminary "This outstanding book offers a key to the new evangelization: It shows how ordinary believers can use the gifts of the Spirit to bring people into a life-changing encounter with the love and power of Jesus."--Bishop David G. O'Connell, auxiliary bishop of Los Angeles "This is an exceedingly important book. If you're going to read one book on the gifts of the Spirit, I recommend this one."--David F. Watson, Ph.D., academic dean and vice president for academic affairs, United Theological Seminary "This book will revive your expectation for God to work through you."--Neal Lozano, founder, executive director; Heart of the Father Ministries
