Are the gifts of the Holy Spirit really for today?
When the renewal of the Holy Spirit began to sweep the nation, a reporter for Guideposts magazine was assigned to investigate this phenomenon. John Sherrill was a skeptic about speaking in tongues and the baptism of the Spirit, but he set out to find the truth. What he uncovered changed his life forever.

This classic work on the Holy Spirit and the gift of tongues has inspired and changed millions worldwide. The story of a reporter's journey from skepticism to a life-changing relationship with God, it is filled with biblical and contemporary accounts of speaking in tongues. And it is a deeply personal and moving picture of how you, too, can walk in the power of the Spirit day by day.

John Sherrill (1923-2017) and his wife, Elizabeth, co-authored numerous bestsellers--classics such as The Hiding Place, The Cross and the Switchblade and God's Smuggler--and traveled the world researching and writing articles and books. Longtime editors for Guideposts magazine, they also co-founded Chosen Books. The Sherrills have three grown children, eight grandchildren, and four great-grandchildren.
