In this deeply encouraging episode, I sit down with my dear friend Margaret Feinberg to discuss her powerful new book, "The God You Need To Know," which explores the Holy Spirit throughout the Old Testament—a perspective many of us have never considered.

Margaret vulnerably shares about the grueling journey of writing this book, including mysterious physical symptoms that only appeared when she sat down to write, countless setbacks, and what she calls "spiritual static" that seemed to oppose this message at every turn. But the result is a revolutionary look at how the Holy Spirit has been actively working since Genesis 1:2, not just appearing for the first time at Pentecost.

We dive into why so many believers feel disconnected from the Holy Spirit—often seeing Him as ethereal, less relatable than Jesus, or reserved for "special" Christians. Margaret unpacks beautiful imagery from scripture like the Spirit "hovering" over the deep, using the same Hebrew word that describes an eagle brooding over its young, providing warmth, protection, and provision in our uncertainty.

This conversation is filled with practical wisdom for recognizing the Spirit's work in everyday moments—from simple breath prayers to keeping a daily journal with one question for Holy Spirit. Margaret shares incredible stories of God's surprise and delight in ordinary circumstances, like buying a purse that perfectly matched a grieving friend's Easter dress, reminding us that the Spirit-led life is accessible to all of us.

Whether you've felt the Holy Spirit is silent in your life, wondered how to access the power that raised Christ from the dead, or simply want to live with more intentional awareness of God's presence, this episode offers hope and practical steps for experiencing the fullness of who God is—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

This isn't about becoming super-spiritual; it's about recognizing how the God who created you is already uniquely working in your life.
