Help for the ones called to this extraordinary ministry - and for those who want to minister to them.
Scripture lists prophecy as one of five ministry gifts for the Church, but prophetically gifted people have the reputation for being difficult - sometimes impossible - to live and work with.
Prophetic pastor Loren Sandford delves into the mysteries of this office, including
- why prophets seem extreme and moody - how prophetic people hear from God - the difference between adrenaline and anointing - the four signs of a true prophet - how to pastor a prophetic person - how to recognise this gift in children
Prophets can learn to step out of loneliness and isolation into balance and wholeness. As they grow in this unique calling, the Body of Christ will indeed be blessed.
Author Information: R. Loren Sandford is the founding pastor of New Song Fellowship, which is affiliated with the Toronto Airport Christian Fellowship. A long time prophetic voice and worship leader, he is the author of a number of books, including *Purifying the Prophetic*.

"With piercing accuracy, this book will not only grant sanity to prophetically gifted people, but it will give a measure of peace to pastors in their quest to relate to strongly gifted prophets." - Dr. James W. Goll, Encounters Network; author, *The Coming Prophetic Revolution* and *The Seer*
"This book ought to be a required manual for both churches and the emerging prophets within them." - John Loren Sandford, co-founder, Elijah House Ministries; author, *The Elijah Task* and *Elijah Among Us*
"Because the messenger is the message and the prophet is the prophecy, this book is a must-read for the Church at large and for all called by God to be His prophetic spokespeople. It is a classic and will prove an invaluable, lifelong tool to many who desire to know God's voice and ways." - Marc A. Dupont, Mantle of Praise Ministries, Inc. *- Publisher*

The Prophetic is a hot topic. If you are prophetic you don't claim it, but rather are acclaimed by others. . . but on the way to acclaimation, Sandford explains what life can be like for the person learning to walk in the prophetic. \\r\\n\\r\\nI've heard ppl who aren't particularly gifted in the prophetic , after reading this book say,"""" but these things apply to every ministry. """" \\r\\n\\r\\nI've also heard ppl who would like to be prophets as part of an immature need for self aggrandizement lap this book up. . \\r\\n\\r\\nOn the whole it is a helpful book debunking spirro chasers and cults and bringing prophets, as all other gifts given to the church, squarely under authority. I found it very helpful , scripturally sound, well written and to the point.

I thank God for Loren Sandford who has explained articulately the wilderness experience and the night of the soul experience. For those of us who have been through these experiences we can breathe a sigh of relief. This book is essential reading for Pastors and/or Prophets. Loren also outlines his experiences in dealing with the prophetic as the Pastor/Prophet of a church and the pitfalls we can avoid. His integrity, honesty and transparency is refreshing and encouraging. I am extremely grateful for this book.
