Overview
"The Orthodox Church has been characterized by some as """"the best-kept secret in North America."""" Making use of personal interviews and correspondence, magazine and news articles, and other publications, Timothy Cremeens weaves the story of a spiritual renewal movement that began in the United States in the early 1960s and rapidly spread around the globe touching millions of Roman Catholics and Protestants, what is today called the Charismatic Renewal Movement. In 2017, this Movement, celebrated its 50th Jubilee anniversary in the Roman Catholic Church. However, Cremeens presents here the never-before heard story of that Movement among the Orthodox Churches in North America. He recounts the history of this spiritual renewal movement through the first-hand accounts and eyewitnesses of Orthodox clergy and laity who testify to their life-changing encounters with the Holy Spirit. """"This book is the first in its kind and has at least two important implications: theologically, Orthodox Charismatics can robustly explore a rich link between marginality and the Spirit's empowering presence, and globally, the research can encourage similar studies from around the world forging a network of Orthodox Charismatics."""" --Wonsuk Ma, Professor of Global Christianity, Graduate School of Theology and Ministry, Oral Roberts University Timothy Cremeens, an ordained Orthodox priest, is Dean and Pastor of Holy Resurrection Orthodox Cathedral (Orthodox Church in America) in Wilkes Barre, PA. He serves as the Interim Dean of Grace Graduate School of Ministry, Twin Falls, ID, Adjunct Instructor of Theology at King's College, Wilkes Barre, PA, and Instructor in Church History at William Seymour College, Lanham, MD."
