Who On Earth is the Holy Spirit?, by Tim Chester

Tim Chester asks a good question in his little book Who On Earth is the Holy Spirit? and Other Questions about Who He is and What He Does.  Many Christians have this question about the most mysterious member of the Trinity.  True to form, Chester, a pastor in the UK, looks to the scriptural record to gain a broad understanding of what the Bible says about the Holy Spirit.

Every Christian should be aware of the Holy Spirit and his work.  Unfortunately, a minority slice of the Christian world--pentecostals and charismatics--seem to have monopolized teaching about the Holy Spirit.  Chester's is a moderating voice, offering a balanced perspective that will challenge some Christians to open their minds to spiritual gifts like prophecy and healing, and will remind other Christians that these "manifestation" gifts are only a part of what the Holy Spirit is about.

It's short.  It's biblical.  It's theologically sound.  It's balanced.  It's a good book.
