Rating: 
Summary: Balanced, fair, and helpful
Review: Dr. Beverley has written a thoughtful and thorough evaluation and critique of the movement known as "The Toronto Blessing". He avoids the sensationalism and hysteria of Hannegraaf's "Counterfeit Revival" or MacArthur's "Charismatic Chaos", and presents instead some carefully researched evaluations, and offers even-handed encouragement, admonishment, and suggested corrections.
Probably nobody, charismatic or not, will agree with everything Dr. Beverley has written, but it was refreshing to read a book that is thoughtful, respectful, and seeks to be truthful to the Word of God, and to reporting factually on the teachings and practices associated with this controversial topic.
A must-read.
