Biblical and balanced.

I loved this book. I want to buy a copy for everyone I know.

The book is incredibly balanced. It takes a very biblical look at the use of Spiritual Gifts in the New Testament and in Paul's writings. Then Sam Storms goes through many practical applications of the use of the gifts and what they might look like in a modern context. I loved it because it wasn't at all hyper-emotional or fanatical in a negative way that some gifts seem to be associated with certain people.

I would recommend this to anyone.
