Jesus, Continued...

Why the Spirit Inside You Is Better than Jesus Beside You

By: J. D. Greear

Narrated by: Maurice England

Encounter the dynamic presence of God as you learn from pastor and author J. D. Greear how to more fully experience the Holy Spirit within you.

Jesus gave his disciples the audacious promise that the spirit he would send to live inside them would be even better than if he himself remained beside them. Yet how many of us consider our connection to the Holy Spirit so strong that we would call his presence in us better than Jesus himself walking by our side?

J. D. Greear was the pastor of a rapidly growing church who still felt like he didn't know how to relate to God personally. Though he knew a lot about God, he wasn't as sure about how to walk with God. Furthermore, he felt overwhelmed by the size of the mission Jesus had left for his church. In a world of so much need, what difference could he possibly make? Learning how God dwells in us and empowers us in the Holy Spirit redefined his life and ministry. Ministry became less about working for God and more about letting God work through him. Drudgery was replaced by delight; helplessness was replaced by empowerment.

In Jesus, Continued... Greear explores - in clear and practical language - questions such as:

• What does it mean to have a relationship with the Holy Spirit?
• How can we tell when the spirit is speaking to us?
• What do you do when God feels absent?

If you are longing to know God in a vibrant way, Jesus, Continued... has good news for you: That's exactly what God wants for you too. His spirit stands ready to guide you, empower you, and use you.

great book

It's more mission oriented and doesn't focus on the work of the Holy Spirit. The basic premise is the Holy Spirit helps us to become laborers for Christ. instead of just being recipients of Christ's grace, with the Holy Spirit we become participants.

Jesus Continued

I truly wanted to know more about the Holy Spirit and this book captured and answered many questions I had. Very good book. Great narrator! It’s receives a 7 in my book.

awesome

I can admit I wasn't always educated in regards to the holy spirit and how important it is in my daily life. This has truly been a life-changing book for me

The Holy Spirt in you will make everything possible

This was a great book. It really paints a great picture of what we can accomplish with the Holy Spirit. That having the Holy Spirit is so powerful.

Any additional comments?

it brought to life the need for the Holy Spirits power on any Christians life.

Great content.

The book is very good, a call to the sleepy church of Jesus to go out and start doing our job. However, the narrator sometimes drags the words making the sentences unclear and hard to understand.

Enlightening!

A very positive and practical study on the work of the Holy Spirit today. Greear boldly speaks the biblical truth about the Spirit where many are hesitant in the face of the prevalent perversion of Holy Spirits place in the modern Christian's life.

Maybe speed it up...

If you've heard Jd speak, I don't recommend this book. I had to speed it up. That helped. This narrator is an excellent reader. He did a good job, but was too slow for JDs tone. Again, I want to say nothing against this reader.

Wonderful

This book buy the new president of the Southern Baptist Convention is wonderful. I can't stop listening. This book describes the member of the Godhead that is often ignored. The Holy Spirit. I can't stop listening.

Are you ready to encounter Jesus?

Brilliant book by JD Greer. Clearly written from a man who loves the church and loves seeing her flourish through the Holy Spirit. The book is challenging, comforting, enlightening and worth listening to if you want to experience more of Jesus through His Spirit. Phenomenal emphasis on how the Spirit sends us out into the world.

I needed this message desperately. Now I know that God hasn't given up on me, that my languishing isn't outside of God's will, and that He wants nothing more than to do amazing things through weak people like me. Highly recommend this book. Also great for people who aren't sure who Jesus or the Holy Spirit is. I think He will meet many through the good news in this book.
