Catch the Fire - Toronto Blessing - An Experience of Renewal and Revival (Paperback)

Hailed as the beginnings of widespread spiritual revival, the "Toronto Blessing" is gaining popularity in evangelical churches. Characterized by the spontaneous laughter, tears, trembling and falling to the ground under the power of the Holy Spirit, "Holy Spirit Fever", as it has been called has gripped many churches. In this book, a member of the pastoral team where it all began tells the story of the origins of the movement, and the powerful effects it has had in Toronto and beyond. The biblical basis for such dramatic events is explored and in a survey of evangelical church history, similar outpourings of the Holy Spirit are chronicled. The book concludes with a selection of personal stories of total transformation.
