Reviews"The debate among Christian leaders on spiritual power began in 1989. Confronting Powerless Christianity should, once and for all, put an end to the debate. In it Chuck Kraft deals a brilliant coup de gr'ce to those who have attempted to deny the full power of God in the world today." -C. Peter Wagner, Chancellor, Wagner Leadership Institute"With the warm heart of a pastor and the cold logic of a scholar, Kraft exposes powerless Christianity for what it is. Showing us how to add the power of the Holy Spirit (the missing dimension) to Church ministry, he then enables us to become more truly trinitarian and fully biblical." -Ken Blue, author of Healing Spiritual Abuse and Authority to Heal"Many will label Confronting Powerless Christianity a provocative book. In his usual straightforward style, Charles Kraft addresses topics that can produce serious debate among evangelical Christians. But it is clear that his goal is not controversy. Kraft is calling the people of Christ to take the power of the Holy Spirit seriously, and to move forward with authority to set prisoners free. He argues for a biblical approach to spiritual warfare that goes far beyond talk-one that actually confronts the destructive presence of evil in people's lives. Kraft discusses an experience of dynamic faith that invites intimacy with Jesus and results in transformed lives. His scholarship, experience and, most of all, heart for the broken and lost show through in this book." -Dr. Terry Wardle, Professor of Spiritual Formation at Ashland Theological Seminary"Charles Kraft has been writing about issues of spiritual power for some years. Above all he is an experienced practitioner in the field. This book gracefully reflects the accumulated wisdom of both his writings and his practice. Kraft also responds firmly and carefully to the concerns of his critics. His impassioned plea to evangelical Christians to engage in power ministries such as healing, deliverance and spiritual warfare should not go unheeded. Read it and you will be both challenged and inspired." -Stephen A. Seamands, Professor of Christian Doctrine, Asbury Theological Seminary

SynopsisCompelling biblical arguments in plain language that all Christians, not just charismatics, should be experiencing the power dimension of Christianity., "The only kind of Christianity in the New Testament is Christianity with power." If you are skeptical about--yet intrigued by--the issue of spiritual power for today, Charles Kraft provides a biblical, reasonable apologetic for a realm too often overlooked. He describes his own paradigm shift concerning the power of Jesus to heal and free others, and explains persuasively why every Christian should be confronted with this "missing dimension." Confronting Powerless Christianity will inspire a more robust faith that is powerful enough to heal, to free people from emotional wounds and to bring about real life change.
