About this listen

[DONATE WITH PAYPAL] In this first part of a series on the Holy Spirit’s role in extraordinary experiences, host Greg Smith explains charismatic gifts like speaking in tongues, prophecy, words of knowledge, and healing, addressing questions from curious listeners. Drawing from Scripture and the history of Pentecostalism, including the Azusa Street Revival and more extreme manifestations like holy laughter and snake handling, he demystifies these phenomena for Catholics, Protestants, and secular audiences. Greg unpacks the Catholic Church’s affirming yet discerning stance, rooted in the Catechism and papal teachings, emphasizing balance and authenticity. Teasing Part 2, he hints at how Catholic mysticism parallels these gifts in even more astonishing ways.
