Now this book is not just simply someone telling about their journey into the things of the Holy Spirit it is much much more than that. He goes into scripture explaining very soundly why the gift of tongues is given to the body of Christ and how and why it is available to every believer. He goes into depth on the importance of this gift and how it is a blessing to both the believer personally and the Church as a whole.

Steve's opening section of autobiography engaged me thoroughly as he described his own misunderstandings about tongues due to his conservative upbringing.

What other book might you compare Nine Lies People Believe About Speaking in Tongues to and why?

I've read other books about the topic of tongues, but most are strictly doctrinal argument. Steve bring much of his own personal experience into this book.

Which character – as performed by Steve Bremner – was your favorite?

Since he performs the book himself, he takes some liberties with the audio format. Steve pioneered podcasting long before it was popular and so has a natural ease bringing his own work to life.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Steve's anecdotes make this look at the theology behind the gift of tongues compelling.

Any additional comments?

Nine Lies People Believe About Speaking In Tounges surprised me. I’ve read other work by the author Steve Bremner, so I expected a good read with lots of biblical truth and interesting anecdotes. But Nine Lies starts with a mini autobiographical section that so matched my own experience it shocked me.

Steve opens the book with the story of growing up in the most anti-charismatic circles imaginable, and his own journey from the fundamentalism of the Plymouth Brethren meetings to a revival school spawned by the Brownsville–Pensicola outpouring.

He walks through each of nine common misconceptions about speaking in tongues and builds a clear explanation of the joys and benefits of living in the Spirit. Through detail use of scripture, he debunks the lies and extols the benefits of speaking in tongues as a part of a daily spiritual walk with the Lord.

The book includes an appendix with step by step instructions on how to either lead someone else or enter into the baptism in the Spirit on your own.

Nine lies is engaging and practical and I recommend to anyone with questions about speaking in tongues.

Great read!

This book by Steve Bremner is a great read. I both enjoy and endorse him as an author. In my many years of ministry, the same questions and beliefs seem to always appear. “What if it’s just me?” “What is the difference between speaking in tongues and praying in tongues?” “How do I engage tongues and get started speaking?” “What if I sound ridiculous?” Steve answers these questions and more in this simply, yet, articulately spoken book. Thank you Steve for another good book.

Steve's voice is very pleasant. He is well articulated, enunciates each word, and his heart for this subject comes through clearly. If a reader/listener has any anxiety for this subject, they will find themselves comforted by the Audible version.

It was about so much more the tongues

Steve has blessed me with this book. My initial thoughts from the title was that it would another book that will just tell me all the thing I’ve heard from the many denominations that I’ve been apart of a one point of another in my life. It did but not in the way I thought, broke down all the things I’ve heard and gave insight strictly from bible. He gave Examples, encouragement and Confirmation on some of the things that the Lord had already speaking to my heart. This book was about so much more than just the gift of tongues. I have a few God given revelations throughout the reading of this book. Sometimes boxs like this feel as if You are having a deep spirit lead conversation with a fellow brother or sister in Christ. Thank you Steve, I have shared your book with many so it may bless them as well.

Great Answers for Skeptics and Cessationists!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

What a great audiobook for seekers and skeptics alike! And by seekers I mean those interested in this gift. One of the strengths of this audiobook is Steve's story - it is so compelling and draws you in. I resonated a lot with Steve's journey as I am sure many people listening to this book will. If you are confused or have questions about the gift of speaking in tongues, I would highly recommend this audiobook. It is also a great book for those on the fence and who maybe doubt that God has this gift for them! Lastly, the appendix on how to lead someone in the Baptism of the Holy Spirit is GOLD! Thank you Steve for this gem!

What does Steve Bremner bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

His own voice and tone telling his own story is so good! I felt like I was hanging out with Steve in his living room and hearing his journey!
