Innovation is not restoration
Continuing to explore the spread of Pentecostalism in British Christianity, after my revisiting of David Watson I have dipped into Jim Packer’s 1979 book, Keep in Step with the Spirit. Packer is generally sceptical about the Charismatic movement, whilst (from that chronological viewpoint) accepting not only that God had used it, but that the Charismatic Renewal had been the major thing God was doing in the Evangelical Church at that time.
