J. Lee Grady | Chosen Books Longtime readers of Charisma will recognize some of the past stories and material from J. Lee Grady's Fire in My Bones columns that appear in his latest book. Echoing calls already made in the magazine, he urges charismatics to develop discernment and turn away from heresies that have given the movement a bad name. Whether taking prosperity theology to extremes, engaging in adultery or demanding huge honorariums, many leaders have disgraced Christ's name. It isn't just these charlatans-some of whom he names-that Grady rebukes; it's those with "itching ears" who give them platforms.
He also offers guidance with succinct teachings on such topics as protecting oneself from imposters, recovering moral character and reclaiming relational Christianity. Readers will draw inspiration from his first-person accounts of witnessing in the inner city and observing humble servants helping the desperately poor in Mumbai and other Third World outposts. In some corners of the church Grady won't be too popular for urging that we embrace God's ways instead of popular, man-centered methods. But then, neither was Jeremiah.
