Fogo e Fragância

by Andy Byrd, Sean Feucht, Matheus Ortega (Translator)

"Vim trazer fogo à terra, e como gostaria que já estivesse aceso!" (Lucas 12.49, NVI)

Apaixonadamente dedicados ao avivamento e à reforma, Andy Bird e Sean Feucht discutem a respeito da perspectiva que Deus está entregando a uma geração, do poder que Ele está liberando e do potencial de um povo incendiado por Ele.
Deus anseia por orações fervorosas e adoração impetuosa, que levam a um serviço puro e a grandes façanhas. Fogo e fragância convoca uma nova geração de zelotes a se levantarem.

Dos Estados Unidos ao Nepal, passando por muitos outros lugares, você irá explorar terras e realidades além da sua imaginação. Por mais de 2 mil anos, o fogo tem sido espalhado pelo mundo, que hoje arde como nunca antes. Este fogo tem enchido um povo que é fascinado pela beleza de Jesus, cujo coração está conectado aos anseios do Seu coração e que está disposto a entregar tudo para ver a fragância de Cristo se espalhar por todos os cantos da Terra!

a book of conviction and a book of commission. this book is all about how our zeal, purity, and submission to Jesus can burn the fire in our hearts so strongly that a fragrance ensues out of our Spirits and our being.

“friends of God will always make the best workers…we are left with no choice but to simply surrender to His love and allow it to burn us deeply.”

This book I read already before but so refreshing to read it again. Knowing different historical events that impacted nations.

Understanding the heart of ‘Fire and Fragrance’ - that they have as DTS with the organization Youth with a Mission.

Beautiful stories and reminder that we keep our fire and search for more hunger!

This book's biblical exegesis is well-intentioned but strained.

[Kjersti · Rating 2 out of 5]

This is a book with a very important message for our time.. And it's about one of a very significant movement in modern Christianity. However, the writing is awful, and hyperbole abounds. Words like massive, huge, violent, extreme and tremendous are found in around two thirds of every sentence, and almost half the sentences in the book end with an exclamation mark. Now that's a shame, because when God does something there is no need for exaggeration! The communication is foggy as well, as some sentences are hard to understand or have dual meanings. It has a great message, poorly communicated.

Rating:
Message: 3-4/5
The way that message is shared: 1-2

Being on campus where this school is held annually and hearing about burns on campus made me curious what the talk was all about. It was good to read the book and understand the movement. From talking with people on campus the book would probably read differently now if they were to update it less than 10 years later as it's grown a lot, especially in the area of scripture which I found most lacking in this volume.

Not quite the book I was expecting from my Amazon search. The subtitle, "From the Great Commandment to the Great Commission" is what sucked me in. In fact, I would characterize that bit as somewhat misleading. But, if you're interested in how the authors perceive a current, ongoing great revival, then this may be the book for you.
