Sensitivity of the Spirit: Learning to Stay in the Flow of God's Direction

This book was a Wow for me!!! This is one book I would not want to have missed and I plan to read it again. Being sensitive to and being led by the Spirit of God is discussed regularly among Christians who desire to please God. Yet there is not much teaching from the pulpit on this topic. Thus this book is much needed in the Christian community. I enjoyed and learned much from this book. I would consider this a classic that needs to be included in every Christian library. If you desire to understand being led by the Holy Spirit or learning more about the Holy Spirit then this is the book for you. It is amazing and I appreciated R T Kendall’s sincerity and humble truthfulness that he reveals about his own walk with the Lord in order to assist others in growing to spiritual maturity. This book is one of my favorites.

I have preached and studied the subject of the Holy Spirit for many years and Kendall's book has touched a very important area that has been neglected concerning the Holy Spirit. We are too insensitive to the Holy Spirit and His work in our hearts and world

This book does more to paint a tangible picture of what is definitely intangible as I have ever read. It is written in detail, it is compartmentalized, and when one is finished reading it; it is possible to put yourself through the sensitivity to the spirit test. It definitely causes one to be mindful of all behaviour both, physical as well as mental. The biblical knowledge coupled with the personal experience and references makes it a must read for anyone striving to grow spiritually.

I forgot for a moment that I live on the Mississippi Gulf Coast and the mail is slow! Fantastic Shopping was most professional but courteous, as to the "whys" I hadn't received my book. I appreciate their concern over one new customer, and I will purchase another book using them. Very customer oriented company.

Perhaps a better way to look at it, is that we have been working on such a loving relationship with Jesus and are trying to immitate His Character Traits and when we stray from this path or sin we disconnect or put other things in the way. They have always been the same for all times. We hopefully are the ones getting better and better. There is also another thought, that sometimes God places adversity in our path and we in the beginning of this process think that it is bad. But this is just his way of making us stronger and shaping us the way that He wants us. At this period, we see and feel things that we don't ordinally have seen or felt before. This phase stops, not because we have done somethings wrong, but because we now understand what He wants us to do. (Kind of like a gentle push)

This is a very informative and enlightening book on the anointing and presence of the Holy Spirit in a Christian's life. Using the story in Luke of when Mary and Joseph left Jesus behind in the temple at the age of 12, Kendall explains how we as Christians often travel on in life believing the Holy Spirit is right there with us when, in fact, we need to retrace our steps to reconnect with Him again. Kendall also uses the Biblical comparison of the Holy Spirit as a dove, which provides thoughtful analogies to help gain a deeper understanding of Him.
