Throughout the late 20th century, the joy and freedom of the Holy Spirit has been released in a spectacular way in the "historic churches." Over that time Dennis Bennett has prepared and prayed with at least twenty-five thousand people for the release or baptism of the Holy Spirit. As one of the pioneers and leaders of this great renewal, Bennett is uniquely qualified to present this "on the job" handbook for those who are seeking to release the power of the Holy Spirit in their own lives and others. This practical, comprehensive manual answers the questions that are the most often asked about the baptism in the Holy Spirit, and shows you how to prepare and guide others for this release. Rev. Bennett shows you how to be more effective in this ministry by first preparing yourself, and then following time-tested, orderly guidelines for leading others into the exciting, full life of the Spirit.
Fascinating book as a historical document (beyond that... well, I'll report back if I end up being baptized in the holy spirit). It's hard to imagine that Fr. Bennett was an Episcopal priest in Seattle in the 70s and early 80s, just a 2 hour drive from the staid Episcopal Church that I attend on Sundays. A lot has changed in the intervening decades.
Every believer in Jesus is equipped with the Holy Spirit, but press on towards the release of the Holy Spirit. Experience your prayer language, joy and freedom in the Spirit. This book will inform you how to do that for yourself as well as lead others into doing the same.
