He doesn't address issues such as "spiritual warfare" as much as he addresses, say.... MONEY. Oooohh, that's a touchy one! Yet God makes a point to bring up the subject quite a bit more than spirits and whatnot.<br /><br />So basically, I think the issue with these types of things is making sure our priorities and energies are going into what GOD cares about...the rest is just not as important (not to say it's not important at all, just not as much, know what I mean?)<br /><br />~MMariekehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09116558356434794689noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28637516.post-18530742084976524992006-12-13T07:21:00.000-05:002006-12-13T07:21:00.000-05:00Hey Jamie,

Peter Wagner perhaps is at the top of the list, having been quite influential at the fuller School off World Missions. <br /><br />Wikipedia gives a fairly decent outline of the teaching and its proponents: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Territorial_SpiritsPastor Philhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07344719487413688550noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28637516.post-91152285681638512682006-12-13T06:50:00.000-05:002006-12-13T06:50:00.000-05:00Phil,
