My endorsement: Once over breakfast, I watched Marty Machowski take a “Dad, I need your help” call from his young adult son. Marty listened, paused to pray for the Spirit’s help, and only then gave his boy fatherly counsel. That moment showed me: When you read Marty’s evangelical and continuationist convictions about Spirit-led family life, they aren’t just theory; they’re lived.
