How Heaven Invades Earth

No one can read a work out of Bethel Church, Redding, California, without the awareness of the culture and atmosphere in which it was produced. I was recently privileged with the opportunity of spending a week around Bethel, its leaders, its people, its students and servants where the culture of honor is well known. You would be interested to know that my report is that it is real and universally atmospheric. To know Kris Vallotton is to be acquainted with honor and to see and sense this atmosphere. Hard-hitting, direct and prophetic, but oh so gentle, the author of this book lives what he writes. If one is offended by what is written within these pages it is probably, in part, because of the lack of acquaintance with Kris himself. Another consideration for offense is dealing with entrenched traditions that are being hammered herein. Honor is inseparable from favor, respect and acceptance. When one chooses honor, as has the whole Bethel team, these qualities are inevitable and real. Yes, you will be challenged, shocked and, if open-minded, you will be beneficially stretched. Reading “How Heaven Invades Earth” will likely be similar to being in a pouring rain, a cold-water-inyour-face experience coupled with a blurred view of one’s surroundings. But when the rain is over and the view clears, you will be different!- Jack Taylor, President, Dimensions Ministries, Melbourne, Florida The Church, as most Americans think of it, may help some individuals but it cannot be a viable means to reform our society. Why? “How Heaven Invades Earth” is the most insightful book I have yet encountered to answer that question. The creative suggestions that Kris Vallotton makes for correcting our past weaknesses and reforming our churches are powerful, positive and productive. I want to be part of the exciting kind of church that I read about here, and I believe you will agree!- C. Peter Wagner, Founder and Chancellor Emeritus, Wagner Leadership Institute
