The Promised Journey: A Devotional for Pentecost and Beyond

"He redeemed us in order that the blessing given to Abraham might come to the Gentiles through Christ Jesus, so that by faith we might receive the promise of the Spirit." Galatians 3: 14 How can we understand and experience the work of a spirit, much less the Spirit of God? The Promised Journey is a daily devotional that focuses our attention on the third Person of the Trinity, the Holy Spirit, who lives and works within us. It explores the hope of the gospel, the hope of God's residence within each of us, provided by the sacrificial and triumphant work of Christ at Easter. Daily scripture readings focus on the work of the Holy Spirit and alternate between the Old and New Testaments, providing a broad picture of the Spirit's role in God's purpose. Short reflections by the author point to the Spirit's work in contemporary society, while meditative prayers, readings and daily spiritual projects help the reader respond to His work. The Promised Journey affirms not only that we can be close to God, but that there is no way we can fail to have God near
