What caused a former Dallas Seminary professor to believe that the miraculous gifts of the Holy Spirit are being given today? What convinced someone skeptical about miracles that God still speaks & heals? A dramatic change took place in Jack Deere's life when he took a fresh look at the Scriptures He discovered that his arguments against miraculous gifts were based more on prejudice & lack of personal experience than on the Bible As soon as Deere became a seeker instead of a skeptic the Holy Spirit revealed himself in new & surprising ways In Surprised by the Power of the Spirit Deere provides a strong biblical defense for the Spirit's speaking & healing ministries today He also describes several reliable cases of people who were miraculously healed or who heard God speak in an unmistakable way Finally he gives sound advice for using spiritual gifts in the church Written in a popular style with the care of a scholar but the passion of personal experience this book explores the real reason Christians do not believe in miraculous gifts responding to charismatic abuses whether miracles were meant to be temporary & why God still heals ...

Applied statisticians in many fields must frequently analyze time to event data While the statistical tools presented in this book are applicable to data from medicine biology public health epidemiology engineering economics & demography the focus here is on applications of the techniques to biology & medicine The analysis of survival experiments is complicated by issues of censoring where an individual's life length is known to occur only in a certain period of time & by truncation where individuals enter the study only if they survive a sufficient length of time or individuals are included in the study only if the event has occurred by a given date The use of counting process methodology has allowed for substantial advances in the statistical theory to account for censoring & truncation in survival experiments This book makes these complex methods more accessible to applied researchers without an advanced mathematical background The authors present the essence of these techniques as well as classical techniques not based on counting processes & apply them to data Practical suggestions for implementing the various methods are set off in a series of Practical Notes at the end of each section Technical details of the derivation of the techniques are sketched in a series of Technical Notes This book will be useful for investigators who need to analyze censored or truncated life time data & as a textbook for a graduate course in survival analysis The prerequisite is a standard course in statistical methodology ...
