Truths From Acts To Enjoy Life In The Spirit
Catherine Martin is a gifted study writer bringing the most complex scripture ideas to life with her gentle leading through Old and New Testament. She makes clear and simple the meaning and application of each Biblical idea. This study is both simple and straightforward for the newest believer, while having plenty of depth and meatiness for more deeply studied believers. Catherine chooses solid commentators to illustrate her points, such as Sproul, Spurgeon, Tozer and FB Meyer. This study helps lead believers to a deeper understanding AND relationship with the Triune God, most pointedly by understanding the Holy Spirit.
Imagine a tall-masted sailing ship, the wind filling its sails, gliding effortlesssly across a shimmering ocean toward a new sunrise? And so it is with those who have entered into a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. He makes His home in our hearts and He gives us the Holy Spirit, Who empowers us for life. … Life in the Spirit is an unparalleled life. No amount of money, possessions, or earthly power can compare to riding the waves of life in God’s power through His Spirit.

"The wind blows where it wishes and you hear the sound of it, but do not know where it comes from and where it is going; so is everyone who is born of the Spirit."
— John 3:8 NASB
God desires for you to live fully in His magnificent power — the power of the Holy Spirit. As an alert, humble, and teachable sojourner, you will run before the wind, catching the wind of the Holy Spirit in your sails, anticipating all of life in His power. As you spend eight weeks exploring guided devotions inspired from the book of Acts, you will …
You’ll find short, inspirational selections from great devotional writers, Scripture verses to look up and reflect on, thoughtful questions inviting your response, prayer starters, and more. The book of Acts is an enriching source of instruction and encouragement for the mind and heart. Spend eight weeks in the book of Acts and your life will never be the same!
I have been blessed to be in various Bible studies written and taught by Catherine Martin. She has a way with words that no one else seems to have. This particular book is the best I have had the privilege of studying on the Holy Spirit. I recommend it highly.

Looking forward to studying this book with friends. We have benefited by three of her other devotional study books and this one has the topics to be most instructive and encouraging. Her writings are true to the Word and in looking this one over, that is the case with "Run Before the Wind" also. If you are serious about spending time in learning what God wants for your life and Who He is pick this one.

I was challenged by your statement to run before the wind — what a beautiful visual picture of how we are to be running in the race. How exciting to know that God is challenging you to run with Him, keeping your eyes fixed upon Him so that you will not become weary in the work that is yours and yours alone. How exciting to have a devotional guide that is so spiritually focused and so biblically based!

A devotional that requires one to read Scriptures ( yes!) and meditate on the beauty of God’s Word. Wonderful quotes from other brilliant writers from days of old and current theologians. Love all of her devotionals!!

Run Before The Wind. I felt spiritually dry (depressed and heavy laden) for a long time and after reading this book there was a drastic change inside of me. I was changed on the inside that others could sense and see. Not every spiritual book caught my attention like this one did. The message is all the same, but the way Catherine delivers the Word is powerful! She is very thorough. If you are ready to take God’s word to a new level and take you to new heights read this book!
