Most Christians live and die, never knowing the fellowship and companionship of the Holy Spirit. They have heard about the Holy Spirit and may even know doctrinal answers regarding the Third Person of the Godhead. But knowing about the Holy Spirit and personally knowing Him in daily fellowship are two very different things. The fulfillment of the God-conceived desires that you have dreamed of and that your heart has yearned for lies hidden in the keys within the pages of this book. As you read with an open heart, the Heavenly Father will reveal the ministry of the Holy Spirit to you. And as you act on what you learn and yield to His life-transforming work in your own life, you will set yourself squarely on the path that leads to your dreams becoming reality!

Every Easter the 'miracle' of the Holy Fire is re-enacted in front of hundreds of the faithful in the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem. 'Holy Fire' presents the battle waged by Christian churchmen for their saviour's empty tomb. Victoria Clark deftly weaves a fascinating account that includes the aggressive campaigns of medieval Crusaders, the empire-building of the nineteenth-century European powers, Britain's decision to establish a Jewish homeland in Palestine in 1917, and today's zealous, though unlikely, champions of Israel's cause, the Christian Zionists. She explores the contribution that the Christian world has made to the unfolding tragedy of the Holy Land - at a time when it has never been more urgent for the West to see itself as others see it.
