I have read "The Happiest People on Earth" which is the story of the Shakarian family, their moving to the U.S. and of Demos founding the FGBMFI. It's a neat book and has been out of print for a while. I found a used copy on Amazon.com and had it sent to a man in Columbus, OH that was interested in FGBMFI and right now I have another used copy on order I intend to give to a young man who has started coming to our church and is interested in FGBMFI.
I have attached a pdf file of some of the ways the Holy Spirit moved in that Shakarian family

I did attend their monthly meetings for about 15 years and
last spring I went to one of their weekend retreats.
Really enjoyed it.

Re: What are you reading currently?
Ok, I should add that the Qur'an
also keeps to a very fine essential;
Most are deceived, and the deceptions are delineated;
See, if you have eyes, the mighty kingdoms that have fallen before yours.
And a few find the Living Water.

Re: What are you reading currently?
I finished reading "The Wind Bloweth Where It Listeth" a little earlier this evening. It was written by Lewi Pthrus (March 11, 1884 - September 4, 1974) who was pastor of the Filadledfia Church in Stockholm, Sweeden for 47 years.The copyright date is 1945. The edition I read was an English translation, 1968 edition.
Lewi Pethrus was a leader in the Scandinavian Pentecostal movement. He spoke with tongues as part of his prayer life in 1902 but it was not until 1905 that he realized that what he had experienced was called a baptism in the Holy Spirit.

Reading th ebook "Sexy Christians". Can't remember the authors. Good book on marital intimacy and the many things in life that attempt to destroy a couples connection and sexual desires for each other.
