Editorial Reviews

Praise for An Introduction to the Catholic Charismatic Renewal ". . .an accessible, knowledgeable and articulate introduction to what Pope Francis calls 'a current of grace' for the whole Church. Recommended." -- Ralph Martin, S.T.D., author of The Fulfillment of All Desire "It is our hope and prayer that this work, along with the Bouchers' other publications, will continue to lead many to seek and find a deeper life in the Holy Spirit." --Al and Patti Mansfield, liaisons to the Archbishop for the Catholic Charismatic Renewal, Archdiocese of New Orleans "The Boucher's approach is refreshing, simple to understand and practical. I recommend this booklet to others." -- Bishop Emeritus Sam G. Jacobs, Diocese of Houma-Thibodaux, Louisiana "The authors . . . have cast a wide net to demonstrate to both seasoned participants and to those new to this experience within Catholic Charismatic Renewal, a variety of ways and settings in which the Holy Spirit engages the faithful to exercise charisms of the Holy Spirit for service in the Church." -- Mary Anne Schaenzer, SSND, editor of magazine "This little book invites you to join millions of Catholics who have encountered the Holy Spirit, received him and his gifts afresh, and now live as active disciples. . . . If you want to experience the Holy Spirit ... this book is just the right guide for you." -- Bert Ghezzi, author of The Power of Daily Prayer "This work . . . clearly connects the call of recent popes for a New Evangelization to the power of the Spirit received through the baptism in the Spirit which is at the heart of this new Pentecost." --Dorothy Garrity Ranaghan, co-author of Catholic Pentecostals, and author of Blind Spot: War and Christian Identity. "John and Therese Boucher have done a masterful job in capturing what the Catholic Charismatic Renewal is all about. If you have even the slightest inkling to learn more about the the power and the presence of the Holy Spirit, this is a 'must read.'" --David Mangan, author of God Loves You. And there's nothing you can do about it "John and Therese Boucher's book . . . is motivating for those already striving to live life in the Spirit, and provides answers for those still searching for the meaning of life - or the power to live life fully." --Bob Valiante, liaison to the Bishop of Scranton for Charismatic Renewal
