Book's Detail
Experience and faith: significance of Luther for understanding today's experiential religion

- What place does religious experience have in Christian Life?
- Are all religious experiences Christian?
- Should we seek these experiences or wait for the Holy Spirit to act?

Speaking in tongues, born-again phenomena, spirituality, meditation, Eastern mysticism, and other religious experiences have forced Christians to ask, "What is the place of experience in Christian faith?" This question has troubled Christians and split congregations.

Dr. Hordern stresses that we cannot rely on our experiences alone; we must verify them with God's Word. In doing so, too often people follow only carefully-selected passages while other biblical references are made peripheral of ignored altogether.

This outstanding book presents a balanced discussion of the place of experience within the context of Christian theology. Use this valuable resource to further your understanding of faith today.
