Re: “Five-fold ministry”?

My own involvement with the C&MA was very brief compared to yours, consisting of 3 1/2 years at what is now called Crown College. I did not ever attend a C&MA church while attending there. At first I visited a number of "cutting edge" (ie, on the extreme side) Charismatic congrega...
