Pentecost is the celebration of Jesus keeping his promise that the Spirit of Truth would indeed come alongside and live within each one who believes in him. This Spirit is the same Spirit who powerfully raised Jesus from the grave. He is the one who is always with us and gives us the power to commune with one another, with God, and speak Christ’s life-giving Word to the world. Invite your congregation to receive the Spirit of God’s power afresh this Sunday.
