“Larry Hart’s Truth Aflame brings together charismatic renewal and classic evangelical faith better than anything I have read. An important contribution to the contemporary renaissance in systematic theology!” Timothy George Dean of Beeson Divinity School of Samford University, Executive Editor of Christianity Today As the Pentecostal/charismatic movement continues to grow, so does the need for solid theological resources for its members. While there are many volumes of systematic theology available, very few are written from a distinctly charismatic perspective. Truth Aflame seeks to meet that need. While academically sound, Truth Aflame is written with a practical, pastoral flavor. Larry Hart defines systematic theology as the process of taking what the Bible teaches and relating it to contemporary questions and knowledge. His passion for the subject is evident: he is concerned that the reader both grasps the magnificence of the study of God and allows these great truths to be transformative. This Truth, then—liberating, enlivening, and transforming Truth—becomes central to the ongoing renewal of the church that we are seeing in our day. Dr. Hart treats each of the traditional categories—revelation, God, creation, humanity, sin, Christ, salvation, the church, and last things—from a Pentecostal/charismatic perspective. He addresses other theological viewpoints but does not get bogged down in analysis and rebuttal. Further, he seeks to build bridges of understanding to those evangelicals outside the charismatic tradition. Clear, succinct, and readable, this revised and updated edition of Truth Aflame is well-suited not only for students, but for anyone desiring a greater understanding of Pentecostal/charismatic theology.

INVICTUS, will develop your relationship with God and inform you how faith, hope, peace, love, grace, and joy can strengthen your soul to overcome the coronavirus. The coronavirus has fostered death and destruction throughout the world. It has brought about mass misery, poverty, destabilization of the world economy, collapse of healthcare, disruption of social, educational, recreational, and religious life, however, its greatest damage is on the soul. The social isolation, financial hardship, limitations to our freedom, loneliness, frustration, complicated grief, existential emptiness, nihilism, hopelessness, frustration, anger, sadness, despair, and deep sense of loss associated with the coronavirus has taken a toll on the soul. Consequently, many have lost faith in God, hope for the future, love for humanity, grace for change, peace of mind, and joy for life. How do we handle this major threat to our soul? We use a mask to cover our mouth and nose, but what do we use to cover the soul from the spiritual toxicity of the coronavirus? How do we guard our soul from the spiritual, emotional, and psychological damaging impact of the coronavirus? Fortunately, God has blessed humanity with spiritual values and biblical principles that will safeguard us from COVID 19s spiritual toxicity. Practicing virtues of faith, hope, love, peace, grace, and joy will protect the soul and empower us to become, “more than conquerors.” (Romans 8:37 NRSV). We are Invictus-unconquerable when we trust God and apply Gods’ values to our lives.
