The Way of the Spirit: Using the Gifts, Showing the Fruits

Wisdom, understanding, knowledge...As Christians, we might know the Gifts of the Holy Spirit, but if we're really honest, we don't always understand what they mean and what they do for us. Here, Fr. David Knight shows how these gifts empower us to live the divine life right here, right now. Using clear, straightforward language, he explains Scripture and Church teaching: Wisdom-the gift of seeing everything we do in the light of all we are and are called to be... Knowledge is practical "know-how" in the spiritual life... Here too are suggestions for using these gifts and how to know if we're using them well. (Hint: we'll see the Fruits of the Spirit alive in our lives, and Fr. Knight offers perspectives on these, too.) Each section of this powerful book can help us grow in understanding of these gifts so that we might be guided by the Holy Spirit toward "living fully the Life that is already ours." Book jacket.
