Spirit

The Holy Spirit. Represented as a dove, descending on to the Georgian font cover above the Norman font at Beverley Minster, East Yorkshire.

I went in search of this today as my entry in this week's Challenge.

It is my contention that The Holy Spirit is much neglected and misunderstood these days. In fact, I used to ask people (friends and family, actually) what they knew or understood about it. I got some interesting answers, some informed, some not.

I approach this as someone interested in the history of theology and in the practice of spirituality. I have no vested interest.

Tell me. What does "The Holy Spirit" mean to you? Be brave, give me your answer. Frivolous or serious, it doesn't matter.
