Description
The Spirit-filled life is not a special, deluxe edition of Christianity, but an integral part of God's total plan for His people. When the Holy Spirit came upon Jesus' disciples in tongues of fire, thousands believed in Christ and were saved. This same miracle, the same Spirit, is alive in us today, yet many Christians feel a deep longing for a more intimate encounter with God. Pastor and theologian Simon Ponsonby believes that this hunger stems from a desire for more of the Holy Spirit in our lives. He argues that many Christians have emphasized either the experience of the Spirit or the Word, neglecting the other. As a result, we've forgotten the depth of the promised power and the depth of the love that gave this power to us. Ponsonby invites readers to journey with him into the deep waters of God's love, exploring the biblical and practical aspects of this journey. This book may not be comfortable or easy to read, but it has the power to bring new joy and a deeper understanding of everything we've been given in Christ.
