"Father O'Connor is not only a man of painstaking erudition; he is also one of those who first drew attention to the Charismatic Renewal, which Pope Paul called 'that good fortune for the renewal of the Church.' In this regard, the present book renders a valuable service to the Renewal itself by gathering together and analyzing the texts which are of special interest-either directly or indirectly-to those involved in the Renewal."- from the Foreword by Leon-Joseph Cardinal Suenens
"Every reader of this book will discover that Pope Paul is undoubtedly a real man of the Spirit . . . . "l would urge all people, whether Catholic or Protestant or Pentecostal or even non-Christian, who long for the RENEWAL of the NATIONS, to read this book and learn from Pope Paul that: 'The greatest need of the Church is the Holy Spirit,' and that 'the work of the Spirit of God is decisive for the Christian religion."' - David J. duPlessis
