If the divinely ordained marriage of Word and Spirit means anything it is that we must never capitulate to the lie that they cannot dance in tandem, or that something is intrinsic to what they are that invariably leads one to subordinate, or cancel out, the other. I applaud all those who contend that both must be retained and given their full rights in the church. I, for one, refuse to concede that a healthy revivalism that thrives on intercession, intimacy and immediacy cannot co-exist with a classical, sacramental, Word-based ministry. I believe they can. I believe they must.
Sam Storms, Convergence, p. 139
