The workings of the Holy Spirit

In the mid-fourteenth century the Eastern Orthodox Church was convulsed by a dispute about the whether or not a style of mystical prayer known as Hesychasm was valid.  The prime advocate of this type of prayer, Gregory Palamas "maintained that in such practice of prayer, it is possible to reach a vision of divine light which reveals God's uncreated energy, which is the Holy Spirit." (Christianity: The First Three Thousand Years by Diarmaid MacCulloch, p. 487)  What the mystics of the Orthodox Church were trying to achieve through repetition of the "Jesus Prayer" (Lord Jesus Christ, Son of the living God, have mercy on me.") was a connection with the Holy Spirit.
Jesus made it clear to his disciples that when he left them the Spirit of God would take his place to teach (John 16:12-15) them, and throughout Acts the Spirit is seen guiding and directing the early Church through men like Peter and Paul.  We know from Paul's letter to the Romans that the Holy Spirit is also instrumental in our prayer as well (Romans 8:26-27). 
In the past two thousand years the Church has come up with a variety of answers to the practical questions of what our interaction with the Holy Spirit could/should look like for individuals, local churches, and Christendom as a whole.  For some people, that answer is a subtle one, a "still small voice" that speaks quietly when we're willing to listen.  For others, the answer has been much more vocal, whether it be speaking in tongues, visions, dreams, or other kinds of communication.
Depending upon the church tradition you're familiar with, it may seem odd, even weird, to experience the other end of the spectrum.  To step into a Pentecostal Church if you were raised Roman Catholic would be quite a shock, likewise to step into a Lutheran Church if you were raised Southern Baptist might be equally surprising.  That same divergent response to the Holy Spirit is mirrored in individuals as well.  For some people, to talk about being moved or spoken to by the Holy Spirit is only natural, for others it seems a foreign concept.  Those of us who are naturally outgoing might find such expression easy, and those who tend to be more reserved might find it uncomfortable.
So who is right?  Which expression of the work of the Holy Spirit is the right one?  They all are.  That isn't avoiding the issue, it's the truth.  The Spirit of God works throughout the Church of Christ.  If we are all followers of Jesus Christ, all of us have the indwelling of the Holy Spirit.  That includes the jumping up and down "Hallelujah" shouter and the man sitting in the back praying silently.
Here's a suggestion that might open your eyes, take some time and visit a church that is unlike the kind you're used to; find out the ways in which other Christians are living out their faith, you just might find something that speaks to you.
