    What is a "word" of wisdom? Is it just wisdom in general, or is it a supernatural impartation of guidance by the Holy Spirit? This message explains this supernatural operation of the Spirit and provides examples of its occurrence in Scripture and in the pastor's life.

    Fellowship with Him and with one another.

    I suppose that every parent here today can relate to the question: What does the future hold for my children. In fact most parents probably worry about it more than the child does.
