Spirit Forward

In "Spirit Forward," Ken testifies about his journey of being led by the Spirit out of brokenness into victory. He shares insights into how our heart wounds and religious traditions can keep us from experiencing the vibrant relationship that Jesus promises His followers.

5 years into leading his church, Ken Schaap found himself at a breaking point. His faith was withering and being replaced with disappointment and cynicism. The God of the Bible seemed uninvolved and distant. Dealing with afflicted kids, an overwhelmed wife, a fledgling church, and an imprisoned father left him discouraged and ready to quit. Then, the Holy Spirit touched his life in an unexpected way. Weaving together miraculous personal experiences with a fresh look at God's Word, Ken makes the case that a naturally supernatural life of following Jesus is possible. The Spirit-filled believer should look like the Spirit-filled Jesus of the Gospels. This book serves as a glimpse of how that can happen.

Ken Schaap has been in ministry for more than 20 years as a church planter, pastor, teacher, and author. He is the founder of Go Find Jesus Ministries which is devoted to helping Christians develop a lifestyle of encountering Jesus. In addition, he is the director of the Spirit Forward Conferences helping believers learn how to walk in relationship and power with the Spirit of Jesus. Ken and his wife Candace have four children and reside in Northwest Indiana.
