What can the Holy Spirit do when believers get serious about prayer and the gospel?
For anyone seeking to live at the center of God's purposes, Fresh Wind, Fresh Fire points the way to new spiritual vitality in the church and in your own life.
God moves in life-changing ways—calling us back from spiritual dead ends, apathy, and lukewarm religion—when we set aside our own agendas, take him at his word, and listen for his voice.
Pastor Jim Cymbala knows this from personal experience.
Back in the early 1970s his own church, the Brooklyn Tabernacle, was a struggling congregation of twenty. Then they began to pray…to really pray. Then God began to move, and street-hardened lives by the hundreds were changed with the love of Christ. Today, the Brooklyn Tabernacle is nearly ten thousand strong.
In this twentieth anniversary edition, Cymbala updates the classic stories, including that of his own daughter. You’ll learn how the church has grown and how God helped his people through difficult changes, financial challenges, and dramatic encounters. Cymbala extends his own story outward in order to show how God continues to reshape the life stories of so many people who encounter Christ and the power of the gospel.
This is a message of hope and transformation that continues right into your own stories, shaping and changing you through the power of the Holy Spirit.
Also available in Spanish, Fuego vivo, viento fresco.
