"I don"t want to be post-Spirit, but I wouldn"t mind being post-hype." “Ideas have consequences.” Theology does, too. “Those who fail to learn from history’s mistakes are destined to repeat them.” Including church history.

But they also believe that the gifts of the Holy Spirit are for today. And so the sifting process must begin.
