If you are totally fulfilled in your Christian experience, seldom frustrated, and rarely dissatisfied with yourself, this book is not for you. But if your soul is hungry for more and you are eager to experience all the blessings God has in store for you, then it's time for you to fully embrace the Spirit of God. Chuck Swindoll is convinced we have overlooked, even quenched, important dimensions of the Holy Spirit. And he believes we can find a more spontaneous, intimate, and dynamic relationship with God through the Spirit. Many of us have spent our Christian lives trying to keep a safe distance between ourselves and the Holy Spirit. That was an unfortunate mistake. It's time to start flying closer to the flame.
