The Silent Shepherd

The role of the Holy Spirit in the Christian life is often misunderstood. Some believers focus only on spiritual gifts, others emphasize the practical over the spiritual, and still others avoid the topic entirely. Yet, despite the apparent confusion, the truth is very simple: the Holy Spirit is a vital part of our relationship with God. In The Silent Shepherd, pastor and author John MacArthur offers a balanced and solidly biblical study of the personality, work, and deity of the Holy Spirit. Rooted in his forty years of ministry, MacArthur dispels misconceptions, offers new insights, and shows how the Spirit of God can guide, direct, and strengthen every believer.

It includes a study guide for personal and group use, featuring discovery questions, prayer suggestions, and activities—all designed to connect life-transforming truths to the believer's daily life.

"The Christian life begins and continues by the power of the Holy Spirit, whom God has lovingly sent, first to awaken us to our need for salvation, then to give us new birth, and finally to dwell within us for the purpose of ultimately presenting us spotless when Christ returns. This will be the subject of the final chapters of this book. I trust that this will become the underlying theme of the entire book, in accordance with this immutable truth: '...Not by might nor by power, but by my Spirit,' says the LORD of hosts" (Zech. 4:6). John MacArthur.
