Spiritual Power And Missions: Raising the Issues

by Edward Rommen (Editor)

In this book, three missiologists (Robert Priest, Thomas Campbell, and Bradford Mullen) wrestle with the strategic issue of spiritual power in mission in a paper titled Missiological The New Animistic Paradigm. Leading experts, Charles Kraft and Patrick Johnstone, give a response in their papers, 'Christian Animism' or God-Given Authority? and Biblical Spiritual Power to Change our World.

[Emily]

A noteworthy dialogue, but there are some serious issues with Krafts’s position (and his attitude).

[Hans]

Strong debate & wise counsel

Priest cs raise questions concerning the validity of much modern delivery ministry. Kraft's reply leaves me with doubts. Johnstone's plea for a strong ministry of intercession, while containing some implicit criticisms as well as affirmatons of both, takes the whole exchange to a much higher spiritual level.
