The Message of the Holy Spirit: The Spirit of Encounter (The Bible Speaks Today Themes)

Overview

Despite the teaching of the Bible and church tradition, it seems that many Christians can still lack an appreciation of God the Holy Spirit. He has sometimes been valued more for the gifts he bestows than for who he is; or he has been viewed simply as the “third person of the Godhead.” However, Keith Warrington’s conviction is that the Holy Spirit is more important, more central, more immanently involved in his creation, the church, and individual believers, more often and more strategically, than many Christians realize. When Jesus left his disciples and went to heaven, he gave the best gift he could—the Holy Spirit—knowing that he will be our dynamic guide and partner as we seek to live as God’s people. In this practical, biblically based exploration of the Spirit, Warrington encourages believers to recognize that the same Spirit seeks to encounter us and desires that we encounter him.
