Why does the church not preach the Holy Spirit? He was present during the creation moment, he is the author of Scripture, and he is the Helper Jesus left behind. Though Scripture warns not to grieve or quench the Spirit, he is most often ignored, misunderstood, and even feared. The creeds of the church say the Spirit is to be "worshipped and glorified," and yet he is hardly mentioned from the pulpit.
When the Holy Spirit comes to live in believers,...

Alors qu'aucun écrit de saint Bernard n'est consacré au seul EspritSaint,
les textes qui le concernent foisonnent dans son oeuvre : présence diffuse, difficile à cerner, qui n'a pas reçu des
théologiens l'attention qu'elle mérite. Ici, il s'agit de faire ressortir la profonde cohérence de la doctrine de
Bernard, en laquelle tout s'ordonne autour de cette intuition centrale : au coeur de la Trinité, l'EspritSaint
est l'amour unissant le...
