    About this audiobook

    The Times Are UrgentGod Is on the MoveNow Is the Moment to …ask God to ignite his fire in your soul! Pastor Jim Cymbala believes that Jesus wants to renew his people—to call us back from spiritual dead ends, apathy, and lukewarm religion.Cymbala knows the difference firsthand. Thirty-five years ago his own church, the Brooklyn Tabernacle, was a struggling congregation of twenty. Then they began to pray … God began to move … street-hardened lives by the hundreds were changed by the love of Christ … and today they are more than ten thousand strong.The story of what happened to this broken-down church in one of America’s toughest neighborhoods points the way to new spiritual vitality in the church and in your own life. Fresh Wind, Fresh Fire shows what the Holy Spirit can do when believers get serious about prayer and the gospel. As this compelling book reveals, God moves in life-changing ways when we set aside our own agendas, take him at his word, and listen for his voice.

      WHAT WAS I doing here? I’d asked myself that a dozen times since I pulled into the church parking lot. I hadn’t grown up in a very religious house. We went to a service on Christmas, maybe Easter, but not on regular Sundays. So what had brought me he

      Commentary: Grappling with Catholicism

      Mar 8, 2019

      I am still a practicing Catholic. To write that now seems to beg an explanation. How can I continue to profess the faith within the bounds of an institution so thoroughly corrupted by the gravest of sins? How can I accept the host from the hands of m

      Jim Cymbala reminds us what it takes to bring about revival. Some of us think that we need sophisticated methods but all we need is to call on God in desperate sincere hearts. The book is well written with real life examples that were both capturing, humbling and inspiring. I definitely recommend this book to anyone who is hungry for the move of God.

      I’m a United Methodist pastor, one of those comfortable with charismatic Christianity (yes, not all charismatic Christianity). I read this book years ago and was rereading to use as an encouraging call to prayer for my current lay leadership. But it has a little bit too much theological baggage and questions raised to simply hand off. If you remember the book more fondly, part of my read is colored by my particular ministry context, as well as by a number of claims (available online) of spiritual and financial abuses within the Brooklyn Tabernacle world since this book was published.
    • 4/5
      This is a very good book that focuses on the need for prayer (and the lack thereof) in churches today. He does a very good job of balancing the sovereignty of God with the responsibility of people, which is a difficult task indeed when handling the topic of prayer. His call is simple and straight-forward, we need to stop focusing on the unimportant and come back to seeking God. This book caused me on many occasions to stop and spend time seeking the face of God and cry out to Him through prayer. I believe that this is a book I will recommend to many people in the future, as well as reading it semi-regularly myself.

      By simply recounting his journey from an inexperienced minister in an inner city church with 20 members, to 8 churches with 8000 people weekly in NYC, Jim Cymbala makes his powerful testimony. His point? One builds the church through prayer to God.
    • 3/5
      Pastor Cymbala tells the interesting and inspirational story of the growth of the Brooklyn Tabernacle from a small, struggling congregation to the huge, influential church it has become. When he refocused his personal ministry on prayer and led the flock to become a house of prayer, it unleashed the powerful blessing of God. When his wife assumed leadership of the worship and music ministry, that added another powerful dimension. In sum, the book tells how prayer and praise, combined with a compassionate love for the unloved and the unlovely, provided the catalyst for a dynamic spiritual awakening and the resulting growth of the Brooklyn Tabernacle. Anyone involved in any sort of Christian ministry can find something edifying in these pages.

      When I read this I loved it. For some reason today I think about it only with skeptisicm. Maybe it's a lack of faith. I'm not sure.
