Forgotten God- By Francis Chan

Just yesterday i started reading forgotten God by Francis Chan it's really good if you have not read it. It's one of those books that's really made me think and evaluate myself. It's talking about the Holy Spirit and how churches today tend to steer away from talking about it. One of the quotes that i really liked in the book was talking about  the holy spirit and how we in the church make metaphors and analogies so that we can better understand Him. 

"God is not like anything. He is incomprehensible, incomparable and unlike any other being. He is outside our realm of existence and thus, outside our ability to categorize Him. While analogies might be helpful in understanding certain aspects of Him, let's be careful not to think that our analogies in any way encapsulate His nature. 
Go to the  Forgotten God Book Website to learn more about the book it's a really great book and i would encourage everyone to read it :) Also if you have not read Crazy Love by Francis Chan, you should read that too, it's amazing :)
