Who Is Holy Spirit?

who is the holy spirit

 

Who is the Holy Spirit introduces the Holy Spirit as the love of God personified.  Participants will explore why more Christians don't experience the Holy Spirit in their lives the way he is described in the Scriptures.  We explain how the Spirit empowers and enriches the life of a believer, how to recognize the action of the Holy Spirit, and examine some of the obstacles to receiving new life in the Spirit.  Participants willl be introduced to the transforming power of the Holy Spirit through personal testimony and prayer.

Short Talk

This presentation can be done as a shorter talk (60-90 mins) that walks participants through the material at a quicker pace and provides handouts for them to complete reflection and prayer on their own time.  Suggestions are given on how to apply the insights gained.

Retreat Day

This presentation can also be offered as a longer retreat experience (4-6 hours).  The first half of the day is spent on examining the person of the Holy Spirit.  The second half of the retreat looks at how the Holy Spirit interacts in our daily lives.  The day ends with a prayer experience that encourages participants to pray for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit.

  • I couldn't wait for each session!

    When I was told I had to participate in this ongoing formation for discipleship, I was annoyed and didn't want to come.  The first class was awesome, and by the end of each gathering, I couldn't wait for the next session. I feel very blessed to have shared this time of learning with you!
