In 'Jesus in Me', Anne Graham Lotz draws on her rich biblical knowledge as well as her personal story-including her recent cancer diagnosis-to help us understand that the Holy Spirit is not a magic genie, a flame of fire, or a vague feeling. He is a Person who prays for us, guides us in our relationships and decisions, comforts us in pain, and stays by our side at all times. Here, Anne explores seven key aspects of the Holy Spirit that will revolutionise how you understand and relate to this vital third Person in the Trinity. As Anne writes, 'One of my deepest, richest joys has been discovering by experience who the Holy Spirit is in every step of my life's journey. Each name that He has been given-Helper, Comforter, Advocate, Intercessor, Counsellor, Strengthener, and Standby -reveals another aspect of His beautiful character and has provoked in me a deep love for the One who is my constant Companion...Jesus in me.' Discover how to better love and rely on the person of the Holy Spirit-and embrace how much He loves you.

God and Me aims to help children find out all about God: what He is like, how he cares for them, and how He wants them to live in His world. Familiar situations and everyday experiences encourage the child to think about Christian values. Each day includes a Bible reference for a story or passage that links to that day's topic, and a prayer or prayer idea to help the child develop his or her relationship with God. God and Me is based on the biblical teaching that God is our creator and provider, and that He is loving, giving, and just. The Christian values that the child explores through the book are those outlined in Jesus' teaching in Matthew 5-7, and in Paul's letters to the Galatians and the Colossians.
