Description:
From Lloyd John Ogilvie…For Christians who are tired of dull, “business as usual” living…For people everywhere who want their lives to count…Here are twenty-six chapters that penetrate the secrets of some of the most exciting and significant years of the Church…and give you an impelling resource for learning to receive and release the limitless energizing power of the Spirit. The text interpreted in Drumbeat of Love is the Acts of the Apostles, the biography of a persistent drummer–the indwelling Christ.
Dr. Ogilive calls on his wide ministry and personal experience to draw significant and striking parallels to our contemporary situation. As he illuminates those qualities and acts of the Holy Spirit which electrified people of the first century, you will experience a “you are there” involvement that dynamizes the all-pervading theme–the urgent imperative for receiving the Holy Spirit’s power and letting it flow through us. What the Church needs today, says Dr. Ogilive, is new fire for renewing the bold witness to Christ’s love. We can be ignited and kept burning when we learn to listen for the drumbeat…and respond.
