Adventism's Greatest Need by Ron Clouzet

by Ron E.M. Clouzet

The history of the Seventh-day Adventist Church is replete with examples of missed opportunities that would allow the special outpouring of the Holy Spirit to work in hearts and prepare the way for the latter rain. The church has allowed lesser things to become more important than "the greatest of all our needs."When the disciples prayed for the endowment of the Spirit in the Upper Room, they reached a point of full surrender, like never before. Likewise, when we receive the Spirit, it will be seen by the lives we live and the burden we have for the lost.In Adventism's Greatest Need, Dr. Ron Clouzet shares a compelling conviction that the Holy Spirit is poised and ready to reignite an end-time people in their quest for true godliness.

Read this through quickly (i.e., a weekend commitment). Commit to finishing it, no matter what. A prompt reading will allow for a better overarching picture and understanding—as well as a more immediate sense of satisfaction for having completed it. Make quick notes, underlines, and dog ears for places you want to revisit. Then go back through more slowly, with more thought, and especially, more practice.

This book is marketed as a book for Adventists, but is meant simply for humans. We all are in need of a Comforter, and the peace and wisdom He is promised to provide. We all want that. And though nothing in this book is new, everything is important. I, for one, found myself needing to hear so much of what the author said.

Perhaps the best indication of a great book?—that it points to God's Word, the Bible. I believe this one does.

Reminded me of the importance of having a strong relationship with God and the need to set aside time daily to nurture this relationship. The author included the right amount of stories of those that have shared their faith along with biblical truth. Great book for personal study or in a small group setting. The notes at the end of each chapter are helpful for further study. Would recommend this book to anyone who wants to strengthen their walk with God.
