Rev. Dr. Charles H. Kraft ist ein Anthropologe und Linguist, dessen Arbeit sich seit den frühen 1980er Jahren auf innere Heilung und geistlichen Kampf konzentriert. Er befasst sich mit der Dynamik des spirituellen Lebens und untersucht, wie Einzelpersonen und Gemeinschaften von negativen spirituellen Einflüssen befreit werden können. Sein Ansatz verbindet auf einzigartige Weise anthropologische Erkenntnisse mit theologischem Verständnis und bietet den Lesern ein tiefgreifendes Verständnis des geistlichen Bereichs.
The narrative follows Chuck's journey from feeling a divine calling to become a field missionary in Africa to experiencing a transformative three-year stint in the bush. Although his time there was brief, it profoundly shaped his future endeavors and equipped him with valuable cross-cultural skills. The story explores themes of faith, purpose, and the unexpected paths life can take.
The position of human beings as the crown of God's creation enrages the enemy, who does everything in his power to prevent us from seeing our worth in God's eyes. In this empowering and liberating book, Charles Kraft explores what our existence means to God, what it means to Satan, and how we can win the battle by becoming aware of who we actually are.
The church is in the world to continue Jesus’ ministry. But it has forgotten an important part—dealing with enemy spirits. And Satan runs freely in our world with few Christian leaders knowing how to stop him. Dealing With Demons presents Kraft’s way of dealing with Satan’s army, whose aim is to destroy God’s forces. Are demons for real?, he asks. “Yes,” he answers, “and they are very active.” With personal experience setting free hundreds of people from hundreds of demons who left without a fight, Kraft presents his approach through inner healing. This he hopes will help readers, who have been afraid to deal with demons, to go confidently into battle with them, in the authority we have in Jesus, to set captives free.
Focusing on the complexities of modern mission work, this book explores the challenges of crossing social, cultural, and religious barriers in a globalized world. Contributors address contemporary issues while connecting them to historical debates surrounding mission priorities, power dynamics, and cultural perspectives. The dual aims are to reflect on current tensions in mission strategies and to foster respectful dialogue aimed at advancing God's mission and the salvation of diverse communities.

Über den vollmächtigen und gelassenen Umgang mit der geistlichen Welt
"A seminary professor and former missionary offers an accessible, comprehensive resource to help readers lay aside doubts and embrace a biblical, balanced approach to spiritual warfare"--
„Jedyny rodzaj chrześcijaństwa, jaki widzimy w Nowym Testamencie, to chrześcijaństwo z mocą” Charles H. Kraft przedstawia biblijne, rozsądne argumenty w obronie posługiwania duchową mocą w dzisiejszych czasach. W pierwszej kolejności opisuje on, w jaki sposób sam osobiście doświadczył przemiany sposobu myślenia w odniesieniu do mocy udzielanej przez Jezusa do uzdrawiania i uwalniania innych ludzi, a następnie tłumaczy w bardzo przekonujący sposób, dlaczego każdy chrześcijanin powinien zostać skonfrontowany z owym „brakującym wymiarem”. Niniejsza książka zainspiruje cię i wzmocni twoją wiarę w to, że Bóg ma moc, aby uzdrawiać i uwalniać ludzi z emocjonalnych zranień, prowadząc do prawdziwej przemiany życia. Chuck Kraft zadaje błyskotliwy cios miłosierdzia tym wszystkim, którzy próbują zaprzeczyć pełnej mocy Boga w dzisiejszym świecie. C. Peter Wagner rektor, Wagner Leadership Institute

A poor self-image. Chronic depression. A bitter divorce. The trauma of sexual abuse. Why do some wounds fester and refuse to heal, even after we seek help from those who specialize in treating deep emotional pain? Kraft believes that in order to experience real and lasting freedom from a painful past, we must understand the powerful link between spiritual warfare and inner healing. It is only when we recognize and reject the enemy's influence on our most hurtful memories that we can receive complete restoration in mind, heart, and spirit. Deep Wounds, Deep Healing is a complete guide to deep-level healing. Whether readers are seeking restoration for themselves or for those under their care, this book will enable them to recognize the spiritual roots of emotional wounds and invite God's presence into those darkest of places. His power is the hope of freedom and inner healing.
