Summary: A theological look at the Spirit that effects everyday life
Comment: Anything written by Jurgen Moltmann is a must read (a difficult read but still a most read). He is the greatest living theologian in the world and this book continues to confirm this in my mind. When I understand him I am dumbfounded by his words. He discussion of our world being ruled by our fear of death has changed my life. How can we really live when even Christians fear death? For example - at one time in history our society was intimately involved with the dead. If you died your family would be the ones who took care of you, prepared you for burial, and then buried in the center of town by the church where everyone would be reminded of your life. Now if you are dying we place you in a hospital and even there move you away from the other patients into an I.C.U., once you die we give your body to someone else (a mortician) to take care of it and prepare it for burial, and then we bury you on the outskirts of town where we can forget about you. We are scared of death and that keeps us from living. Of course, his discussion on the four positions of prayer is also very good. This is one of his easier to read works but it is still excellent.

Summary: Perceptive and Fresh
Comment: As a Pentecostal-Charismatic I really enjoyed reading this book. Here in a simple and sensitive way Moltmann, who is one of Europe's leading theologians, distills in a small book a lifetime of reflection on and struggle with the Spirit. Themes that I thought familiar (such as prayer and holiness) I found to be challengingly unfamiliar through this book. One excellent feature of this book was the way it discussed the Spirit in relation to contemporary social and personal issues.
