What Happened to the Fire?: Rekindling the Blaze of Charismatic Renewal

Grady issues a ringing call to his own spiritual family and has identified key problems that must be addressed before revival can sweep the Church. They include: Pride in spiritual gifts, hyper-mysticism, gullibility and lack of discernment, shallow theology and flimsy biblical interpretation, spiritual abuse and heavy handed leadership, exaggerated claims of healings, miracles and manifestations. The fiery passion that was once ablaze within the movement is being smothered. Can the flame be kindled again? J. Lee Grady is an ordained minister, and conference speaker, and editor of Charisma magazine. Lee directs The Mordecai Project, an international ministry that confronts the abuse of women and challenges the church to release women in ministry. Lee lives in the Orlando, Florida, area with his wife, Deborah, and their four daughters.
