The Holy Spirit
God’s Presence and Power at Work in Us
Published April 2026
The Holy Spirit is God's active presence and power at work in the world and in our lives. Through the Spirit, we are transformed, led, empowered, and guided in our faith journey. Jesus promised his followers that the Spirit would come alongside them as comforter and counselor, empowering them to transform the world.
In The Holy Spirit, Adam Hamilton explores what Scripture teaches about God's Spirit—from the Hebrew Bible through Jesus' promises in the Gospels, the powerful Pentecost experience in Acts, and the rich teachings found in the New Testament letters. This accessible study helps believers understand and experience the Holy Spirit's presence and power in their daily walk with Christ.
Perfect for small groups and individual study, this resource focuses on the Holy Spirit as revealed in the Gospels, Acts, and the Epistles. With the purchase of the book, you will also receive access to complimentary leader helps and video content. Each video session is approximately 5 minutes in length.
