Inhaltsangabe

Experience a life-changing encounter with the Person of the Holy Spirit and discover the fully alive spirituality you've been longing for.

In The Familiar Stranger, pastor and author Tyler Staton draws on Scripture, tradition, and spiritual practices to help you step into a genuine relationship with the Holy Spirit.

Christians today are hungry for authentic spiritual experiences, yet all too often they don't have the knowledge of or relationship with the Holy Spirit. The confusion and unfamiliarity that surround the Person of the Holy Spirit, lead too many Christians either to sideline him or misunderstand what he means for their spiritual lives. For a generation searching desperately for an experiential spirituality, there's good news: the Holy Spirit's indwelling presence to empower and transform is freely available.

In The Familiar Stranger, Staton reintroduces you to this oft-neglected Person of the Trinity, tracing the story of the Holy Spirit as it unfolds throughout the Bible, and inviting you to close the gap between what Scripture reveals about the Holy Spirit and your lived experience. Along the way, you will:

  • Dig into key biblical images and metaphors that reveal the Holy Spirit's nature, roles, and personality
  • Learn about common misperceptions that keep believers and churches from experiencing the fullness of the Holy Spirit's power and presence
  • Discover how the Spirit brings discernment and access to miraculous power to partner with God in the work he's doing in the world
  • Reckon with the indispensable role of spiritual experience for walking with God
  • Understand how both Word and Spirit (too often separated in some church traditions) work together to draw people into a vibrant, intimate knowledge of God

 

The Familiar Stranger will challenge, inform, and encourage you, regardless of what type of church background you come from, to become more deeply acquainted with the Person and work of the Holy Spirit--and experience his transformative, life-giving power in your life.
