Publisher's Summary

Is something crucial missing from your congregation's programs?

Beneath the surface of churches' programs and activities lies the fundamental question of how leaders and churches can be enabled to discern and obediently cooperate with the guidance of the Holy Spirit.

This biblically grounded book asserts that many leaders overlook the necessary precondition of cooperating with the empowering will of the Holy Spirit before putting their plans into action. Growing the Church in the Power of the Holy Spirit is a highly practical guide for nurturing relations between believers and the Holy Spirit, a process facilitated by seven dynamics.

  • Love that draws us into engagement
  • Faith and obedience
  • Receiving divine guidance
  • Exercising spiritual discernment
  • Welcoming the gifts and manifestations of the Holy Spirit
  • Intercessory prayer that shapes the future
  • Seeing and responding to kairos moments

Advanced by the church leadership and brought into being by the Holy Spirit, these factors help congregations preach and teach, worship, heal, govern, make disciples of converts, and evangelize.
