Synopsis

Is the Holy Spirit a stranger in your faith?

Have you ever felt there's a gap between the life promised in the Bible and the one you're living?

For many followers of Jesus, the Holy Spirit is a familiar stranger—a rumored figure we know of, but don't truly know. We hear stories of God's power but struggle to see it in our own lives. This study guide is an invitation to close that gap.

Join pastor and author Tyler Staton on a six-session journey to rediscover the most misunderstood person of the Trinity. Moving from rich theology to practical application, this study provides a framework to experience the Holy Spirit in profound, new ways.

You will learn to:

• Hear God's Voice: Develop the practice of discernment to recognize God's whisper amidst the noise.
• Move in God's Power: Explore the spiritual gifts of prophecy, healing, and more, not as ancient history, but as a present reality.
• Redeem Your Pain: Understand how God meets us and works through our suffering.

A vibrant relationship with the Holy Spirit starts now!

This study guide includes:

• A guide to best practices for leading a group
• Individual access to six streaming video sessions
• Personal study for deeper reflection between sessions
• Video notes and comprehensive structure for group discussion time
