false 4927493 1 Julie Lyons was working as a crime reporter when she followed a hunch into the South Dallas ghetto. She wasn’t hunting drug dealers, but drug addicts who had been supernaturally healed of their addictions. Was there a church in the most violent part of the city that prayed for addicts and got results?<br><br>At The Body of Christ Assembly, a rundown church on an out-of-the-way street, Lyons found the story she was looking for. The minister welcomed criminals, prostitutes, and street people–anyone who needed God. He prayed for the sick, the addicted, and the demon-possessed, and people were supernaturally healed. <br><br>Lyons’s story landed on the front page of the <i>Dallas Times Herald</i>. But she got much more than just a great story, she found an unlikely spiritual home. Though the parishioners at The Body of Christ Assembly are black and Pentecostal, and Lyons is white and from a traditional church background, she embraced their spirituality–that of “the Holy Ghost and fire.” <br><br>It’s all here in <i>Holy Roller</i>–the stories of people desperate for God’s help. And the actions of a God who doesn’t forget the people who need His power. <i><br></i> 4993110 16 6 2009 Holy Roller total:10|5:5|4:3|3:2|2:0|1:0| 10 43 15 6 5 0 false false Sun Jul 12 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Sun Jul 12 18:18:58 -0700 2009 Sun Jul 12 18:19:52 -0700 2009 more...]]> 4 0 false false Fri Jul 10 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Tue Jun 16 06:10:17 -0700 2009 Mon Jul 13 12:31:03 -0700 2009 more...]]> 4 0 false false Sat Jun 13 11:07:17 -0700 2009 Fri Jul 17 15:33:22 -0700 2009 more...]]> 3 0 false false Sun Mar 01 00:00:00 -0800 2009 Sat May 09 12:57:38 -0700 2009 Wed Jul 08 05:24:50 -0700 2009 more...]]> 5 0 false false Mon Jun 01 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Sat Jul 11 11:11:11 -0700 2009 Sat Jul 11 11:17:10 -0700 2009 more...]]> 5 0 false false Sat Aug 15 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Sat Aug 15 09:12:00 -0700 2009 Sat Aug 15 10:24:49 -0700 2009 4 0 false false Wed Nov 04 11:15:34 -0800 2009 Wed Nov 04 11:15:34 -0800 2009 5 0 false false Sat Aug 08 20:32:01 -0700 2009 Sat Aug 08 20:32:01 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Mon Jul 27 23:48:10 -0700 2009 Mon Jul 27 23:48:10 -0700 2009 5 0 false false Sun Sep 20 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Thu Jul 09 13:30:29 -0700 2009 Sun Sep 20 18:13:45 -0700 2009 3 0 false false Wed Jul 08 19:01:32 -0700 2009 Wed Jul 08 19:01:32 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Sat Jun 20 00:00:00 -0700 2009 Mon Jun 22 15:34:43 -0700 2009 Mon Jun 22 15:35:05 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Fri Jun 12 12:00:23 -0700 2009 Fri Jun 12 12:00:33 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Wed Apr 08 14:01:36 -0700 2009 Wed Apr 08 14:01:36 -0700 2009 0 0 false false Fri Mar 20 10:09:49 -0700 2009 Fri Mar 20 10:09:49 -0700 2009 http://www.goodreads.com/book_link/follow/8?book_id=4927493
