#79: Charismatics in a time of COVID-19 (with Lucy Peppiatt)
“We all have good habits and bad habits, and good habits that can become bad habits when exaggerated in a crisis. In a trauma, much of our ‘normal’ behaviour is tested & challenged in ways we may not be prepared for.”
My guest on the show this week is Lucy Peppiatt, Principal of Westminster Theological Centre in the UK. Lucy is a Charismatic Anglican and is a theologian, an educator, pastor and author. We discussed the gifts that Charismatic Christians offer the world in a time of crisis, as well as the areas that Charismatics need to be particularly careful about. We covered the power of prayer, using prophecy responsibly, anchoring what we say about God in the real world, as well as the importance of co-suffering & lament with our brothers and sisters around the world.
