Tongues

Charisma and CharacterSteve Gregg
In "Tongues", Steve Gregg discusses the role of speaking in tongues in the Holy Spirit life of believers. While some consider it a sign gift, Gregg argues that tongues may not be as important as other spiritual gifts. He notes that interpretation is crucial to understanding tongues, but emphasizes that this gift is not necessary for all believers. He also addresses objections to speaking in tongues and explains the biblical basis for its practice.
