Holiness is the power to be the kind of person the God wants us to be. Charismatic is the power to do the works of God. Richard Foster encourages us to not be afraid to wade into this often misunderstood and sometimes despised tradition of the Church.
This interview continues a series on the six major Christian traditions outlined in Richard’s book Streams of Living Water. To dig deeper, see the Renovaré webpage on The Six Streams and Richard Foster’s book Streams of Living Water.
