I am mentoring a new Christian, and tonight we are discussing the Holy Spirit! Needless to say this is a very difficult topic for a newbie - heck, even for most of oldies!
Anyway, the book we are using does a good job, but only scratches the surface - I was wondering if anyone know of a good website for some extra resources I can print out and give to him?

THIS (http://www.carm.org/index.html) is a good site. Try the links under 'questions' on the left hand side of the page towards the bottom. There are sub-headings for God and Jesus but not for the Holy Spirit. There are questions/answers regarding the Trinity there.
Here (http://bible.crosswalk.com/) is an online bible...

Personally, I love searchgodsword.org
I love to look up the meanings of words in the Hebrew or Greek and then search for all the places those same words are used in Scripture.
Like for instance, the Hebrew word for God's Holy Spirit is:
Ruwach roo'-akh
Parts of Speech TWOT
Noun Feminine 2131a
Definition
wind, breath, mind, spirit
breath
wind
of heaven
quarter (of wind), side
breath of air
air, gas
vain, empty thing
spirit (as that which breathes quickly in animation or agitation)
spirit, animation, vivacity, vigour
courage
temper, anger
impatience, patience
spirit, disposition (as troubled, bitter, discontented)
disposition (of various kinds), unaccountable or uncontrollable impulse
prophetic spirit
spirit (of the living, breathing being in man and animals)
as gift, preserved by God, God's spirit, departing at death, disembodied being
spirit (as seat of emotion)
desire
sorrow, trouble
spirit
as seat or organ of mental acts
rarely of the will
as seat especially of moral character
Spirit of God, the third person of the triune God, the Holy Spirit, coequal, coeternal with the Father and the Son
as inspiring ecstatic state of prophecy
as impelling prophet to utter instruction or warning
imparting warlike energy and executive and administrative power
as endowing men with various gifts
as energy of life
as manifest in the Shekinah glory
never referred to as a depersonalised force
Now if you cross check that Hebrew word for verses- you can really get an indepth study.... and also do the same thing for the Greek, in the NT :):

Thanks for the suggestions - Man, I tell ya! This is the first time I've mentored in the word - and if you've never done it before, let me recommend it to you! I cannot get enough of it! After so long of being spit upon and cursed by the media, co-workers, family, and so-forth, you get to share God's precious word with someone who is actually EAGER to just drink it all in! It is the best thing in the world!! Truly, there is suddenly just so much I want to share with him, I could probably go all night except I'm afraid I'd fry his brain!!
