Publisher's Description

In the name of the Father, the Son, and ... the Holy Spirit. We pray in the name of all three, but how often do we live with an awareness of only the first two? As Jesus ascended into heaven, He promised to send the Holy Spirit—the Helper—so that we could be true and living witnesses for Christ. Unfortunately, today's church has admired the gift but neglected to open it.

Breakthrough author Francis Chan rips away paper and bows to get at the true source of the church's power—the Holy Spirit. Chan contends that we've ignored the Spirit for far too long, and we are reaping the disastrous results. Thorough scriptural support and compelling narrative form Chan's invitation to stop and remember the One we've forgotten, the Spirit of the living God.

Forgotten God - eBook 5 5 3 3

Good book for the times Francis Chan speaks to an issue that needs addressed. We have become a people much too dependent on ourselves, and less and less on the power of the Holy Spirit. August 28, 2012

A fresh look into the Holy Spirit; buy it, read it Great insight into the importance and meaningfulness of Holy Spirit and His everyday work in our lives. November 15, 2011

Why do we neglect the work of the Holy Spirit? In this short work Francis Chan does a wonderful job of explaining the role of the Holy Spirit and our lack of full understanding or commitment to allowing the Holy Spirit to work in our lives. Each chapter builds on the work of the Spirit and also builds on why it is that we don't seem to hear from the Spirit or allow him to work. What I found really helpful was that Chan at times asks you to stop reading and spend some time with God in prayer or in reading different chapters of scripture. Those exercises make the book even more helpful and future help the reader to work on their relationship with God, specifically with the Holy Spirit. One challenge that really resonated with me was the question, "do you love the people of your church?". The issue being that love is one of the major commandments that Christ taught us to include in our lives. But many of us today don't consider the others we worship with, instead we just go to church to get our own selfish desires meet. Those typically are our social needs meet, and also to earn enough good points to go to heaven when we die. But God is not concerned with those things. He is concerned with us having a strong relationship with him and allowing the Holy Spirit to work through us to meet the needs of people around us. Do you regularly hear from the Lord? Do you regularly feel the nudging (leading) of the Holy Spirit? If not it is your issue not Gods. He desires to use you, but way to often we are thwarting the work of the Holy Spirit by our own selfishness and stubbornness. Philippians chapter two reminds us that we are to humble ourselves and to look out for the needs of others as more important than our own needs. Chan remindsnus that as we live this selfless life that the Holy Spirit can then do His work. The bottom line is this, do you love God and love His church so much that your joy is only complete when the church of God is growing? If thatbis true of your life then you will notice the Holy Spirit working in and through you. This book is a great book to keep around and probably one that you should read every year or two as a good reminder of how to allow the Holy Spirit to work in your life. Enjoy. August 3, 2011
