"A rich yet accessible account of the practices, spirituality, and theology of charismatic Christianity"
Helen Collins explores charismatic Christianity by focusing on seven key emphases that mark this modern renewal movement.

"Collins introduces charismatic theology through biblical and doctrinal reflections on the foundational story of Pentecost and the central experiences and practices of spiritual gifts. In this way, Charismatic Christianity celebrates the theology and spirituality of charismatic and Pentecostal movements and joins them for a global theological conversation and testimony to the church living in the power of the Holy Spirit."
--Wolfgang Vondey, University of Birmingham

"Confessionally charismatic, as well as more broadly catholic, this book is a treasure trove of creative theological reflection and scriptural engagement. It is a gift to scholars seeking to find ways to express the dynamics of a Spirit-filled life."
--Cheryl Bridges Johns, Global Pentecostal House of Study, United Theological Seminary

"Collins has made a significant contribution to charismatic theology. Scholars, students, and regular church members will find much to inform their minds, warm their hearts, and shape their ecclesial practices. I commend this study and look forward to using it in my own class on the person and work of the Holy Spirit."
--Rev. Mark J. Cartledge, FRSA, London School of Theology

"In this valuable work, Collins provides a rich yet accessible account of the practices, spirituality, and theology of charismatic Christianity. Her explanation of the key emphases of charismatic Christianity as a substantive, mature form of Christian faith will be beneficial to charismatic Christians, to charismatic pastors and leaders, and to academic theologians."
--Jon Stovell, Vineyard Churches of Canada

"For those not typically called charismatic, this book offers an on-ramp for understanding, appreciation, and even joining. For charismatics, it models a mature spirituality that in turn inspires a fulsome ecclesiology. Lucid and compelling, Charismatic Christianity is a gift to the church."
--Jon Coutts, Ambrose University
