As with everything I've read by this author, this was very sincere, reflective, and thought-provoking. Highly recommended!

Tyler Staton is a storyteller. This book is filled with story after story about the Holy Spirit moving in power, in ways we understand and in ways we don't. It is a book very much needed for the church: our lack of understanding about the Holy Spirit leads us to live lives that are nothing like what we are shown in scripture. Staton addresses the core roots of our lack of holy ambition regarding the Holy Spirit, and he cautions us not to live in fear or seek power wrongly, but to come humbly and expectant. I appreciated the healing and suffering chapters the most. Staton writes with kindness and the heart of a shepherd, seeking to remove harm from the flock. I loved the comparison between Simon the Sorcerer and Nicodemus, two characters who I never would've thought to compare, but their stories really help bring the idea of going all in to life. If you want an introduction to the Holy Spirit, this book is a great place to start.
