Jesus, Continued... Why the Spirit Inside You Is Better Than Jesus Beside You
Influential pastor, J.D. Greear, helps this generation of Christians, who are weary and longing for joy, recover the dynamic presence of the Holy Spirit in their life. Jesus promised his disciples that it was better if he returned to heaven because then the Holy Spirit could live inside them. Yet how many Christians consider their connection to the Holy Spirit so strong that they would call his presence in them better than Jesus beside them? J. D. Greear asked that question because he knew a lot about God but was missing the vibrancy of true relationship. Only when he began to embrace the presence of the Holy Spirit in his life did he move from feeling burned out to being on fire. In Jesus, Continued... J. D. explores questions such as: What does it mean to have a relationship with the Holy Spirit? How do the Bible and God's Spirit work together? Jesus, Continued... shows listeners that when they see their mission as something to do for God, they get overwhelmed. When they see it as something to do with God, their work becomes exhilarating. The difference is in knowing that the Holy Spirit is ready to fight their battles, use their gifts, and offer to them the peace of his presence.
