	Jim Jarrell: I am a little different. My first book "God Calls an Unlikely Candidate" was written as a documentation of the things God was doing in my life. There are chapters that describe my life from childhood all the way to 2008. When God really started moving in my life, the things that were happening where happening very fast and went against most of the teaching of my youth. I grew up in a Southern Baptist home, and I was taught that the gifts of the Holy Spirit had left as the Apostles died. Boy did I find out that was wrong, in 2006 I recieved the Baptism of the Holy Spirit with the evidence of speaking in tongues. Now that came as quite a suprise to someone like me because I had been taught speaking in other tongues was evil. I now know that is not true. That led to my reading the Bible to see what else was in there that they had taught me that might help us on our walk in life. After 10 years of studying the Bible, my second book came along called; "Where is the Church". This book shows what church could be like if we would allow God to be in charge. They are both available on Amazon.com listed under my name; Jim Jarrell. I stand behind both of these books, and I am still searching for the church according to Scripture.  (click here to subscribe)
