Fresh Wind Blowing - Harper, Steve

. .

Résumé :
A fresh wind of God's Spirit is blowing on the earth today, and as in times past, God is inviting us to raise our sails and move forward with the power and direction that reflects our commitment to God's will. Some are calling it a new pentecost, but whatever name is given, we are living in a time when we have an opportunity to connect with God's renewing work. One specific manifestation of this movement is the new monasticism. This book is an invitation to explore it and embrace the dynamics it contains.
