Ebook: Prayers to the Holy Spirit: Power and Light for Your Life

How can the Holy Spirit bring power and light to your life? This pocket-sized book features seventy-five reflections that will expand your knowledge of the Holy Spirit and encourage you to pray specifically—and expectantly—for the gifts he bestows. For each reflection, popular author and speaker Bert Ghezzi begins with a brief Scripture passage and then highlights one or more ways that the Spirit works in us, using examples from the Bible, Church Fathers, and the lives of the saints and contemporary Catholics. Then he prays a blessing for you to receive this gift and offers a “prayer starter” that leads you to ask the Holy Spirit for that grace.

“Open this book every morning, read the one-minute reflection, say the prayer from your heart, and your day will be transformed. I started doing that today!”
— Rev. George T. Montague, SM, STD, professor of theology, St. Mary’s University, and author of Holy Spirit, Make Your Home in Me

“Bert Ghezzi is a gifted writer who communicates deep truths in a way that makes them accessible to anyone. His newest book, Prayers to the Holy Spirit, is no exception. If you want to grow in personal prayer, this book is a must-read. Each meditation is a great launching pad for allowing the Holy Spirit to draw you close.”
—David Mangan, author of God Loves You and There’s Nothing You Can Do About It

“In his new book, Bert Ghezzi invites us to discover for ourselves a ‘personal Pentecost’—an encounter with the Holy Spirit, the sweet guest of the soul. I pray that the reading of his book will be the opportunity for Jesus to ‘baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire’ (Luke 3:16)!”
—Patti Gallagher Mansfield, author and international speaker
