Come, Holy Spirit: Thoughts on Renewing the Earth as the Kingdom of Go

Come, Holy Spirit: Thoughts on Renewing the Earth as the Kingdom of God, Volume 1, offers a profound exploration of Christian spirituality and the transformative power of the Holy Spirit. Written by Bishop Francis X. Ford, this classic religious text originated from spiritual talks delivered to the Maryknoll Sisters in China. This fiftieth anniversary edition includes new introductions by Fr. Benedict Joseph Groeschel and Kevin J. Hanlon, providing historical context to the author's life and missionary legacy.

The book examines how the Holy Spirit influences prayer, mission, service, and discipleship. Bishop Ford provides deep insights into the inner life of a believer, emphasizing that true salvation stems from one's character and intentions. As a significant work within the religion category, this volume serves as a testament to the early twentieth-century American Catholic missionary effort and remains a relevant guide for modern spiritual growth.
