Where we continually follow routines, memorize scriptures, building futures, work. Unexciting work, but sometimes it is in the quiet that God moves and grows us.

I usually come at the same issue from a different angle.

If we compare “signs and wonders” to a medicine, both an under-dose and an over-dose can harm the patient.

There’s more to spirituality than psychical research, but denying the psychical component of spirituality can also lead a church astray.

A church that denies the importance of “signs and wonders” can become an atheistic society for self-righteous busybodies. Conversely, a church that attaches too much importance to “signs and wonders” can become a cult of thrill-seekers.
