Describing the indescribable

Last night was wonderful - the fellowship was rich, the discussion fruitful, and, I trust, there will be a fruitful outcome.
I hope also that the book will go some way to helping us arrive at a solution to the "big issues" that we have discussed and that exercise our hearts. It might be useful to read it through such lenses, asking the question, How can this understanding help to get the church back to the Bible, and preaching have restored to it the passion, power, anointing and unction of the Holy Spirit? Can this understanding help to get restored to us the outpouring of the Holy Spirit?
I believe that this is a sovereign act of our gracious God, but He puts it into our hearts what He is about to do. We need to try to discern what it is He is about to do, and fall into line with His purposes.
Maybe this is not being put too well, but, as we said last night, it is very difficult to describe the indescribable.
