Adventures in the Holy Spirit (Paperback)

Terri Lykins is a registered dietitian and the author of Soul Food- A Dietitian's Guide to Nutritional Transformation. She teaches care-givers and therapists to support people with intellectual and developmental disabilities to stay healthy. In this book, Terri tells her personal story of recovery from alcoholism that led her to God, and later, to Christ. As a non-believer for forty years, Terri had no church background or Biblical knowledge until the day the Holy Spirit unexpectedly dropped in, and her relationship to God went from an external one, to having Him move in and set up shop, through the Spirit. Her adventures in the Holy Spirit began with revelation information that the Spirit shared for two years. She carefully wrote everything in notebooks, and began compiling these paragraphs as daily devotionals. Then, just as she thought she was finished with this book, God instructed her to tell her story, to demonstrate what He had done through His grace and mercy: "At first, I argued with God, saying that this book isn't supposed to be about me. Then he reminded me: Yes, this isn't about you. It's about what I've done with your life. Uh oh, that meant more than just sharing the last ten years of my adventures. That meant He wanted me to go back to the ugly parts, and share what He has done for me since the beginning of my journey.."
