I love this book

Great book! Insightful and propelling. Makes you want to do exactly what the text says. It’s certainly anointed by God’s Holy Spirit!

One positive note is that Mathew repeatedly encourages throughout the book that ministers need to, “draw attention to Jesus, not self” [Mathew 143]. Mathew covers the bases as he describes the ministry of Christ and how, “Jesus was not a boring teacher” [Mathew 177]. I also enjoy reading how Mathew talks about Christ saying, “Jesus’ identity was not performance-based; rather it was rooted in Father God” [Mathew 23]. Also, since Mathew has followed Oral Roberts, and studied from him for so long, this book depicts a view recommending the styles and substance of Oral Robert’s Ministry.
