The Gift of Tongues: What It Is, What It Isn't and Why You Need It by Robert Henderson Book Review

In The Gifts of Tongues, Robert Henderson explored what the gift of tongues truly consists of and what it doesn’t mean. He begins the book by sharing how he received the gifts of speaking in tongues. His father took his family to another church that practiced charismatic because he had a longing for the supernatural. His father was able to connect with the Holy Spirit in a deeper way and began to speak in tongues. At 12 years old, Robert was in the back of a car when he tried to speak in tongues and he couldn’t. He went forward in prayer and he supernaturally began to speak in tongues. He explained how Paul taught on speaking tongues and how we need to speak with love as well. He looked at in the book the debate on tongues and why there is much confusion. He also looked at the person of the Holy Spirit and how he had given that gift to people. He explained in detail, the three sins against the Holy Spirit and how we need to be careful and not to focus on labeling that something is not from God. Many times, speaking in tongues could mean that it is gibberish. Sometimes it might be meant to be between you and Jesus and to bring Him glory. 

 

 

I would recommend this awesome book to anyone who is ready to learn about the gifts of speaking in tongues and they are wanting to seek and received the gifts themselves. I learned a lot about who the Holy Spirit is and what all incredible power He has. We can also ask for the gifts of speaking in tongues to bring Heaven to earth and to empower our lives. I liked reading about the debate and how he explored all of the issues people have with speaking in tongues. I immensely enjoyed the discussion and how he wrote a comprehension book on receiving the gift and the power that is available to believers. I also liked the personal stories he included about his own experiences with speaking in tongues and how it benefited their lives.
