A Gem in the Water

Theology

“A GEM IN THE WATER: A CONTRIBUTION TO CONTEMPORARY PENTECOSTAL THEOLOGY ON BAPTISM OF THE HOLY SPIRIT FROM A STUDY OF WILLIS HOOVER’S CHILEAN METHODIST PENTECOSTALISM (REGNUM MINI BOOK SERIES) A GEM IN THE WATER: A CONTRIBUTION TO CONTEMPORARY PENTECOSTAL THEOLOGY ON BAPTISM OF THE HOLY SPIRIT FROM A STUDY OF WILLIS HOOVER’S CHILEAN METHODIST PENTECOSTALISM (REGNUM MINI BOOK SERIES) the general public. Cooper combines both an historical survey of the ministry of a leading pastor from a Methodist background (Willis Hoover) who experienced what has become known as 'the baptism of the Spirit' with a theological discourse on the implications for the world-wide church of contemporary insights into a fuller discernment of all that the Holy Spirit can mean. Being the distillation of a doctoral research project, the reader will find some fascinating fresh thinking on how the Holy Spirit can be received in a way that helps Christians from different backgrounds to appreciate the magnitude of the Spirit's many blessings. The book is likely to open new perceptions. It is truly original in its scope. It is more than worthwhile to discover the new gems to be found.”

Children's Ministry on Purpose

Church Leadership & Ministry

“Children’s Ministry on Purpose is a book that is not just a theory or a concept on “how to”; instead we hear the heart of Steve Adams as he poses questions for us to explore. Steve is by far one of the leading children’s pastors of our time, and the wisdom gained by reading this book impacts me personally, which in turn flows into my ministry. This book’s layout makes thinking about your journey an easy one as you explore your world and ministry to be more purposeful, strategic, and all God intended it to be. I hope you enjoy it as much as I have!”
