The Most Balanced Theological View On The Holy Spirit!

Dr. Alan Schreck's book on the Holy Spirit is highly recommended for all Catholics who wanted to gain a deeper insight on the Third Person of the Blessed Trinity. After searching for a book like this, I thank the Lord for such a wonderful book! It has aroused a deeper appreciation and devotional love towards the Spirit of God in my life after reading it in just one sitting! Though written from the Catholic perspective, this book should also be read also by non-Catholics who wanted a balanced view on the Spirit from the Church's perspective. It is readable and written in understandable user-friendly language, and contains footnotes that will help the reader search for more about the person and work of the Spirit. This book made me appreciate the role of the Spirit in the Church, in the past, in the present and also in the near future. I like Dr. Screck's topic on the connection between Mary and the Spirit. I gained many wonderful insights too regarding the Spirit's influence in the lives of saints. This book will surely set our hearts aflame for the love of the Spirit!
