Re: What are you reading currently?

Right now I'm reading a book titled "The Acts of the Holy Spirit Among the Nazarenes Today." It was published by FGBMFI in 1973. It is part of a series of books (no longer in print as far as I know) with titles like:
The Acts of the Holy Spirit Among the Church of Christ Today
The Acts of the Holy Spirit Among the Baptists Today
The Acts of the Holy Spirit Among the Presbyterians Today
The Acts of the Holy Spirit Among the Episcopalians Today
The Acts of the Holy Spirit Among the Lutherans Today
The Acts of the Holy Spirit Among the United Methodists Today
The Acts of the Holy Spirit Among the Roman Catholics Today

The only one in the series that I have is the one about Nazarenes.
Chapter one is about a man named Wilbur Jackson who was a pastor of a Nazarene church and received the Holy Ghost Baptism. He received the left foot of disfellowship by his superiors in that denomination when they found out that the pastor of the Lockland (suburb of Cincinnati) Church of the Nazarene was speaking with tongues. He became pretty active in the Charismatic renewal movement in this part of the country and is now pastor of a Church (just a few miles from where I live) called Faith Fellowship.

Re: What are you reading currently?

For the last few weeks I have been reading 4 books at the same time.
I finally finished the last 2 earlier this evening. The 4 books I have finished recently are:
35 Simple Studies on the Major Themes in Revelation by M.R. deHaan. copyright 1946

The Acts of the Holy Spirit among the Nazarenes, copyright 1973

Revelation Revealed by Jack Van Impe, copyright 1982

A Look at Revelation by the late Bro. James Stewart, copyright 1998, actually this book was written by Stanley Scism by compiling Bro. Stewart's notes. it was interesting reading that book. I had previously read it not too long ago (late 2006 or early 2007). In his teaching I could hear things Bro. Norris taught us at ABI over 50 years ago.

I'm only half as spiritual as some. I'm reading "Reimagining Church" by Frank Viola and ..... "Stalin's Ghost" by Martin Cruz Smith.

I'm not being spiritual at all. I'm reading 'Very Valentine' by Adriana Trigiani.

I do have a couple of religious histories in my stack.

Re: What are you reading currently?

I am reading Crash Proof: How to Profit From the Coming Economic Collapse by Peter Schiff. This was written in 1997 before the housing bubble burst. He explains a lot of things. It's pretty interesting. Truthfully, I don't understand everything I'm reading....but I'm trying to.

Re: What are you reading currently?

This week I finished "Prophetical Research, The Study of Eschatology" by Clyde J. Haney. This was a re-read. I had read it before. The book is made up of his teaching notes on the Book of Revelation. He is dispensational and pre-trib.

Re: What are you reading currently?

I'm reading two books right now. John Maxwell, "The 21 most powerful minutes in a leaders day" - It's a kind of devotional based upon his 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership.

I'm also reading Jim Cymbala, "You Were Made For More"

I would like to invite anyone interested to visit a Daily Devotional I write:

This whole month of march is on Peace.
