I asked a Priest friend what to read on my priests retreat. He said quite simply. ..."Being a priest is about the gospel and being Spirit-filled....Read Romans and the best book on the Spirit you can find"
Here are my selections for books on the Spirit:
God inside out by Simon Ponsonby
God's empowering presence by Gordon Fee
Surprised by the power of the Spirit by Jack Deere
The Holy Spirit and Spiritual Gifts by Max Turner
For those off on a Deacon's retreat I read two books last year:
A faith to proclaim by James S Stewart
C T Studd by Norman Grubb
