I really wasn't thrilled with this book, but it may work for some people. It just didn't draw me closer to the Spirit - I've read other books I've liked better and that ended in a way I felt like I really got to know the Holy Spirit better.

One thing that bothered me was some of the crazy stuff the author wrote. I just can't imagine God oohing and aahing over me.

I just couldn't finish this book.

Thanks to the publisher and Net Galley for making this book available for me to review.

Jonathan Dodson has written a wonderful book on the 3rd Person of the Trinity, the Holy Spirit. I really enjoyed Dodson's writing, and his heart and passion for us to know the Spirit better. There have been lots of books on the Holy Spirit published, but this one is unique in its approach and style. Firmly rooted in the Bible's supernatural revelation of the Spirit, this book will enrich your mind's understanding and your heart's passion to the wonders of the Person of the Holy Spirit! Highly recommended to all!!!

Many of us think of the Holy Spirit as an abstract force that swirls around the work of God in us and in the world. Dodson examines what it means to have the living, breathing, creating Holy Spirit among us, in us, and working in God's creation as the Presence himself.

As a Pentecostal, I found it thought-provoking, scripturally imaginative, and a worthwhile text to pass along to my doctoral students. The discussion questions at the end and the highlights for meditation and further consideration are helpful as well.

I recommend it.

A very good work on the presence of the Holy Spirit in the lives of Christians and the Church. It was very complete without touching on many of the issues that would be divisive, a book that could be recommended to anyone regardless of their views on gifts of the Spirit and their presence in the Church today.

This is a well written and biblical book. I've read many books oh the Holy Spirit and found this to be one of the best.
I received this book from the publisher for the purpose of review.
