The Charismatic Renewal is an international movement that has made inroads into the Catholic Church and numerous Protestant denominations. The Renewal comes with promises of miracles and spiritual wonders, and participants have long attested to supernatural phenomena taking place as a result of Charismatic practices.
 
However, there is a dark side to the Renewal, and many of the teachings presented by its defenders are incompatible with historical Christianity.
 
In this book, we take a journey through the history of the Renewal, starting with its ancient roots.
 
Topics discussed include:
 
The troubling history of Pentecostalism
 
The origins of the Renewal in the Catholic Church
 
Speaking in Tongues
 
Baptism in the Holy Spirit
 
Covenant Communities
 
And more
Whether the reader is a partisan of the Renewal or not, he will undoubtedly be surprised at the information presented in these pages.
