​I was first introduced to Steve Smith through another book he was a part of writing: T4T: A Discipleship Re-revolution.  That book detailed the work of Ying and Grace Kai as they labored toward a church planting movement in China.  For me this was a paradigm shifting book and one I’d highly recommend.

And so last year when I saw that Steve had a new book coming out, I knew I’d want to read it.  As I learned more about the book and then started reading it, I quickly realized that it would be even more important for me than the first.

Smith’s new book is called Spirit Walk: The Extraordinary Power of Acts for Ordinary People. 

It was written for people just like me.  I grew up in a wonderful church environment but one which we sometimes joked believed in God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Bible.  I had a tremendous foundation of Biblical knowledge but the working and power of the Holy Spirit was sometimes lacking.

I also had a strong Midwestern work ethic and desire for results which inevitably lead to the constant search for the silver bullet - the right method or tool or program that would get results.

Spirit Walk is a book that will guide you into a new understanding and relationship with the Spirit of God.  

Here is a snippet from the preface:

At the core [of church planting movements around the world] is not a method (though simple, Biblical methods are important).  At the center is not a discipleship process (though life on life interaction is critical). What is driving and sustaining the explosive growth of God’s kingdom is the age old Spirit Walk that God designed us for.  Disciples are learning to keep in step with the Spirit of the Almighty God who knows no boundaries, opens every closed door, and produces fruit that lasts for eternity.

Spirit walk is an important book for anyone wanting to live a life of kingdom impact.  It’s practical, relatable and a helpful guide into a more abundant relationship with Jesus and the Holy Spirit.
