Ministry Resources: Pneumatology - Doctrine of the Holy Spirit of God
When we talk about Pneumatology, we're referring to the doctrine, or study, about the person and work of the Holy Spirit. As our Parakletos, the One who comes alongside to assist us in life and ministry, He is our Advocate, Helper, Counselor, Comforter, and Teacher. He develops spiritual fruit within us, spiritually gifts us to serve, and so much more.
