[Bob Mendelsohn · Rating 4 out of 5]

I love history and this almost-live recounting of the 1977 Kansas City conference was a joy to remember. I was there in and out from our little charismatic church in Lawrence Kansas down the road. It was 8 years later when some of the original Planning Committee regathered near St Louis and more conferences took shape. I was asked to be on those subsequent committees and treasured the times with men and women of God in similar circumstances that David Manuel wrote about in this book. So this history became part of my history and thus I valued it even more.
