Review title: Great material... But be warned... Heavy and slow to read!!!
Product review: Ok, so let me clarify a little what I mean by that. If you are looking for an evangelical / charismatic systematic theology then you MUST have this on your bookshelf because it is comprehensive and detailed (sometimes too much so) but that said, really, it is incredibly heavy reading to the point of almost being outright boring in places.It just isn't written in a readable way especially when compared to the excellent Systematic Theology by Norman Geisler (and why on earth have Zondervan formatted it into columns?). These 2 books couldn't be further apart as far as ease of getting the information out is concerned but if you persevere it WILL pay off. That said, both Grudem and Geisler are MUCH easier to read.You might also consider the Systematic Theology edited by Stanley Horton as another 'pentecostal' resource for your library. An excellent resource for the evangelical subjects such as Tongues and Gifts etc...
