Excellent book from Adam Hamilton as usual. Perfect for a group Bible Study I believe.

Once again, Adam Hamilton is able to explain to believers what our religion says about The Holy Spirit. He begins with the Old Testament scriptures, details what the gospels say, next how John explains it in Luke and Acts, and ends with the letters of Paul and the fruits of the spirit. This is a serious study that requires a rereading of the Bible passages as the book is read. OUR HOLY SPIRIT WANTS US TO call on IT; Hamilton describes how this works and will help the reader to become more comfortable in doing so.

Adam Hamilton Makes the Holy Spirit Relational
I really liked the way that Adam talked about his relationship with the Holy Spirit and the way that they have become almost one. This story helps us realize how important the Holy Spirit is in our lives.
This is an easy read and not long. No matter your age, I think you will find this opening your heart and mind.
Enjoy!

Excellent Bible study. Really improved my understanding of the Holy Spirit. Our group enjoyed this study. Book purchase includes video lesson and Leader Guide which is nice. Hope this isn’t Adam Hamilton’s last book now that he’s running for political office. We love his studies.

Adam Hamilton does such a good job of making things understandable. I have used his work many times in my Sunday School Class and he always excels.
