Apostolic Highlighted in Newsweek Column

Posted by: David Bunch

Here's a great column in Newsweek magazine about an Apostolic church and it's positive impact on the author's autistic brother.

We bowed our heads to pray while a slim woman, in a modest plum blouse and long flowered skirt, held his other hand and began to speak out loud to herself in an unknown, indecipherable language. Growing up, we often heard Tim talking to himself for hours on end. "Do you ever do that?" I whispered. "I have, but I won't do it today," he told me.
The entire article is touching and portrays the Apostolic movement and the infilling of the Spirit in a positive light.

How do you feel?" I asked him, "Elated," he said, his intense hazel eyes growing wide. "Do you think the rest of the family will come, too?" he asked as he clutched a black leather Bible none of us knew he owned. I hope they do.

Awesome! Can you believe Newsweek published something positive about Pentecostals???
