I endorsed an invaluble book by Veli-Matti Kärkkäinen called “The Holy Spirit”.  It is now available for preorder through amazon.com

By: Veli-Matti Kärkkäinen

“I am honored to have Grace Ji-Sun, a noted constructive pneumatologist, endorse my new textbook, The Holy Spirit. Having worked in the area of pneumatology for some time and having taught the subject in different kinds of academic environments, I wanted to produce a primer useful to students, instructors, and interested laypersons. More than ten years ago I attempted such an introductory text and it has been widely used in theological schools.
