Additional Info
In the 1960s and early 1970s, when Francis MacNutt first witnessed being “slain in the Spirit,” he didn’t know what to think. Then, amazingly, it started happening in his own healing ministry, where he could determine firsthand its impact on believers. One of the first things MacNutt learned, through extensive research, is that resting in the Spirit (as he prefers to call it) is not new at all: It occurred throughout Church history, including in the Protestant revivals of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, and over centuries of Catholic tradition, Resting in the Spirit continues today, an extraordinary phenomenon that graces believers with healing and wholeness, Overcome by the Spirit tackles every conceivable question and concern about this issue, including:
* Isn’t it just the power of suggestion?
* Aren’t some people actually pushed over?
* What are the spiritual benefits, if any?
* Doesn’t it lead to vanity and competition among ministers?
* How good can something be that causes division and controversy?
Christians seeking deeper understanding of this phenomenon will find biblically informed wisdom and sensitivity. A special section offers practical advice to those in the healing ministry.
