Summary: God is doing a work in our church!
Comment: I'm reading the book right now (a friend and I will be sharing it). Very convicting so far! Many in our congregation are now buying and reading the book after watching a related video. Let me tell you the story.
Our congregation is going through a lot of growth, physically and spiritually right now. My pastor started prayer meetings on Saturday nights, and more and more peoplem are joining the group. Then he went to a Pastor's conference and his wife to a Pastors' Wives conference. My pastor's wife came home with a video "Fresh Wind, Fresh Fire" and told him he needed to watch it. In the meantime, someone shipped him several copies of the video: one for him, as well as a copy for every deacon, elder, and assistant pastor in our church. They watched it at home. One elder had his home Bible study group watch it as well. The leadership unanimously decided that the church body really needed to see the video, so we watched it as a church last night. Pastor Mark wants us to get on our knees as a fellowship. We've had the book "Fresh Wind, Fresh Fire" in our bookstore for awhile, but that book won't last for long once it gets around the fellowship. God brings just the right thing into our lives at the right time! I can't wait to see God really do a work through us!

Summary: Excellent testimony to God's power in our time.
Comment: In reading "Fresh Wind, Fresh Fire" I was struck by how God-centered the book was. It was not just a typical "how-to" on modern Christianity, but it was a timeless work that demonstrated the power of God that He sends out when we trust Him above all others and above all things. Pastor Cymbala did just that in Brooklyn. How refreshing it was to read about the Holy Spirit entering people's lives (people that most American Christians wouldn't have given a chance...) and changing them forever. Brooklyn Tabernacle became a place that God worked mightily because the whole church decided to admit to God that they had nothing else but Him, and that the power was all His. They could not trust in money, buildings, programs, famous people, websites, big staffs, high attendance, affluent neighborhoods, cutting-edge teachings, seminary training, human knowledge, big denominations, long-standing traditions, or anything else. Pastor Cymbala guides the reader toward the power of prayer in a healthy way, as well. We are not tempted to think that the mere installation of a prayer meeting will automatically force God's hand either. I loved nearly every bit of this book. Glory goes to God. I am now reading the follow-up work: "Fresh Faith".

Summary: Fresh wind, Fresh fire
Comment: Twenty-five years ago, the Brooklyn Tabernacle was a church that could barely draw 20 people to a Sunday service. It was a church that lacks of spirit and love. But after Jim Cymbala, the pastor of the Brooklyn, and his wife Carol Cymbala brought Christian faith into the church, everything changed. Although Jim wasn¡¦t a pastor when he first arrived to Brooklyn, but his faith in God led him through the difficulties that he faced during the lives in Brooklyn. The church population went from 10-15 to more than 6,000 people! And among these people includes converted prostitutes, pimps, drug addicts, and homeless people, as well as yuppies and wholesome families¡Ketc. Helping these kinds of people takes a lot of encouragement and faith. It was a big success.
As a Christian, I really really like this book. Not only that this book gives great stories about the Brooklyn church, but also taught me a lot and let me understand the meaning of God. Not a God who¡¦s carved out of a wood, but a God who really exist. God can solve any problems that no one else can. For example, in the book, God changed the population of the people attending the Brooklyn church from almost no one to a church over flowed with more than 6,000 people!! Nothing¡¦s impossible in the hands of God, as long as you ask for it, he¡¦ll give. Carol Cymbala encouraged me by not giving up on my dream. Maybe I don¡¦t have enough skills to be a designer, but as long as I work hard, I believe I can do it just like Carol being so successful in music. Not talented on something doesn¡¦t mean anything, it only means you have to work harder to be successful. Not by yourself, but in Gods hands.
