Well I can give you a long list of what a charismatic is but in short a charismatic believes in the continueing the gifts of the spirit such as Prophecy speaking in tongues interrupting tounges healing the gift of teaching and discernment of the spirit and the gift of Knowledge and so on I go to a charismatic church which is called Calvary Chapel we are practice middle ground Pentecostlism and fundamentalism there some Charismatic churches who go way overboard such as the Vineyards they place way too much emphasis on signs and wonders there’s also the fruads like Binny Hinn and Kenneth Coppland the gifts of the spirit are real but should in line with God I hope this helps you and I hope you can forgive me for the poor posting God Bless you HumbleGunner
I’ve been to Vineyard prayer groups,truly a very powerful and gifted bunch. Most of my exp. with Calvary Chapel is that they are dismissive or distrustful of Charismatic experiences. I’m from Huntington Beach, adjacent to Calvary Chapel, know many from there and elsewhere. Just from my collective exp. with C.C, I dont think there is much in the way of charismatic gifts there.
