"'Dr Zahl not only gives what is likely to remain for some time the authoritative interpretation of Christoph Blumhardt's seminal theology, but he also engages deeply with understandings of the Holy Spirit in Luther and Pentecostalism. In addition he contributes a lively, convincing and constructive proposal on discerning the Holy Spirit in twenty-first century Christian life and thought.' (David Ford, Regius Professor of Divinity and Fellow of Selwyn College, University of Cambridge, UK. David Ford) 'Can a bridge be found between classical Protestantism and charismatic Pentecostalism, the most significant Christian movement in recent decades? Simeon Zahl persuasively argues Christoph Blumhardt's charismatic theology of the cross provides just such a bridge. An important book on a central and unresolved problem.' (Miroslav Volf, Henry B. Wright Professor of Theology, Yale University Founding Director of the Yale Center for Faith & Culture, USA. Miroslav Volf) Reviewed in the Religious Studies Review. Reviewed in Religious Studies, Vol. 37, Issue 3."
