Blog Tour: Experiencing the Spirit

Welcome to the blog tour for Henry and Mel Blackaby's new book EXPERIENCING THE SPIRIT. You can click here to purchase the book.


Publisher's Summary:

Serve God as never before!

The first Christians “turned the world upside down” (Acts 17:6) shaking the gates of hell even in the face of severe persecution. The result: People all around “were filled with wonder and amazement” (Acts 3:10).What can give Christians today the same impact?

God’s Holy Spirit is ready to answer that for us in an awesome way, as Henry Blackaby and his son Mel Blackaby make clear in Experiencing the Spirit. You’ll see how the proof of the Spirit’s presence is our awareness of God’s personal assignments for us, plus our supernatural enablement to carry out those assignments. You’ll find essential clarification on the difference between natural talents and spiritual gifts. You’ll explore the dynamics of being filled with the Spirit through intimate relationship with Him, committed obedience, and radical departure from sin.

Instead of considering what you can do for God with your abilities and talents, you’ll be encouraged here to seek what God wants to do through you supernaturally by His Spirit, empowering you beyond your personal competence and capacities. Release the Holy Spirit’s work at the very core of your experience of the Christian life.

==================================================================

Once again, I have fallen behind in my book reviewing. This book, though, has a strong beginning. The Blackabys jump right in to their discussion of the Holy Spirit! But it's good. I trust them and their teaching, and look forward to this study.

Hi, Pattie,

This book does look wonderful! I've done another study by the same author and really enjoyed it.

On another note, I wasn't sure how to contact you, Pattie. Could you email me at:

Thanks, and great job on your blog!
