An Ontario Outpouring
It’s been the hottest June on record here in Ontario Canada. Hayley and I arrived on Thursday for the weekend’s Made to be Free conference which is being hosted by Grace Walk Canada (GWC) which is run by Mike Zenker. We arrived here with a heightened sense of expectation, having left London where things have been hotting up in the Spirit and having returned home from the church in Finland where we had also seen encouraging evidence of the murmurings of the Spirit.
Ever since I started to teaching consistently into what I call the “teenage phase” of the grace walk we have begun to see and sense his presence in greater measure. I have been contemplating why it is that we are beginning to see evidence. Was it I wondered because we are in the early stages of a charismatic renewal or was it in fact that we are renewed charismatics? I am beginning to realise that it is the latter. At our Bible School, Grace Central Dr. Peter Rowe and I are currently leading our students through a module on the Roots of Pentecostalism which has been really instructive. Without doubt Pentecostalism has a chequered history, one of both glory and shame. However, it is a history that we can learn from and it is a history that we can contribute to by adding more to the glory years if we learn the lessons of the past.
