Partly, mostly about our forgetting of the Holy Spirit and how to bring about change.

I still have 2 chapters to go in the book, but so far this book has been about the Holy Spirit indwelling us as believers...the Holy God (Spirit) actually choosing to live in us...daily. It's about how we often forget that God lives in us. There isn't a charismatic bent to this book...but it does state that the more we walk in the Spirit & let Him have his way in us, the more we will bear his fruit. Hope this helps!

This book is more about the indwelling. I am not all the way through it, but am finding it valuable. I am not Pentecostal or Charismatic so to speak, but am convinced I need to be filled daily with the Holy Spirit. I would reccommend it!

Both. Mr. Chan explains the part the Holy Spirit plays in our lives as just everyday Christians. He goes to the next level and does it with easy to understand terms.
You will enjoy this quick read and come away with a more complete understanding of the Holy Spirit and how He works for us in our churches, beliefs and our daily life. I can recommend this book to anyone who believes in our God, who is the one and yet three, and still wants to learn even more than we hear in the church and read in church literature about the role the Holy Spirit plays--if we just allow Him.

Indwelling of the Holy Spirit. If you have accepted Christ as your Lord and Savior I think this book is an important read. Doesn't matter if you are Pentecostal or Charismatic. The Holy Spirit Still dwells in you.

This product does not focus on the fruit of the spirit, but on how the Holy Spirit moves and interacts with the Church. The author intended it to be used to help realize the power that the Holy Spirit gives to individuals and the Church. The reader does not need to be Pentecostal or Charismatic to appreciate this book.
