[Denise Kettering · Rating 4 out of 5]

This book provides an insightful look at the issue of anointing for Brethren today. Miller briefly and concisely covers both the biblical sources for anointing and the role of anointing in church history before moving on to the very important role that anointing can play within the life of the congregation. The book is practical and theological. It is easy to read, but full of helpful information. It is a real gem on this topic.
