  Insightful July 12, 2008 Review the book or the man?
No doubt in my friends mind, he has excellent qualities as a sincere man of God. My friend has known him in the past from Fuller University.
But, what am I reviewing here? The book I dare say.
The Book offered some insightful thoughts and his personal beliefs as he tells. It was thought provoking and an interesting read.
  Great General Overview of Apostles March 18, 2008 This book is a Great General overview of the role of the Apostle in Today's Church. I recommend it to anyone that wants to begin learning about the office of Apostle as a first read.
  YOUNG APOSTLES STAND! March 12, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I have read a number of books on the apostolic. Each has some good and most have some bad. I personally am watchful about the religious spirit manifesting here having seen it before in CPW's books. It seems that some well meaning folks want to control and define who is and who is not an apostle by their own little mix of Bible verses. Apostles are ordained By Jesus Christ Himself or they are likely not apostles at all. Pastors are the biggest danger to a young apostle. Pastors, for the most part, live in a divided house and will resist change and truth in order to maintain their own little kingdom or power base. 'Protecting' the sheep has little or nothing to do with it, if they did the pastor's would be crying out to God something like this. "Oh God send us your APOSTLES AND PROPHETS OUR CITIES ARE DYING." But they don't! Why? Because they are proud, controlling or luke warm and themselves near death etc. Young apostles stand. If you know that you know you have heard from God then use your authority and move the mountains of religion that the KING of Glory may once again come back in to His house. Do NOT let another minister rob you of your crown. They can and will. Love never fails, JE
  APOSTLES TODAY February 15, 2008 This is a very informative book on how we "do church" is changing in the 21st Century. It takes us back to what God originally intended and gives us a good look at the gifts He bestowed on His Body to do the work that He began and He will finish on the Day of His Return. C Peter Wagner is a radical, no nonsence, Christian leader who tells it like it is and does so with love. He explains clearly the new apostolic movement that is sweeping across the world and upsetting the old religious boxes we have put the Body of Christ and God in for so long. If you are looking for a book about what an apostle does and how he/she relates to the Body at large and what the new face of the Church of Jesus Christ is going to look like then I would recommend you check this book out. Easy read too.
  Not too much new, but good overview December 26, 2007 Anyone interested in New Apostolic Reformation and current apostolic movement would certainly read everything C. Peter Wagner writes on apostles. This book is no exception, however after reading everything Wagner wrote on the subject before I have found no new information in this book. At first sight it seemed to me more like compilation of ideas and thoughts from previous books published both by Regal Books and Wagner Publications, so if you have read already books such Apostles and Prophets, Churchquake, The Spheres of Authority, Apostles in the City, Changing Church and Revival!, you probably will find no reason to buy this book unless you would like to have a summary version of Wagner's teaching on apostles.
However, his teaching also evolves and goes to a new dimensions, so while in his early work on the subject he was merely defending the existence of apostles today, now he creates new broad teachings based more on relevation than Scripture. I find this less appealing than earlier way of research and writtings Wagner did. Well, he is still one of my favourite authors, but Churchquake remains my favourite book on apostles Wagner wrote.
