The Shedding Abroad Of The Holy Spirit

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on May 2, 2017

Acts 2 verses 33-35 are strangely, and sadly, not found anywhere in the weekly lectionary. I have sought to address them here, in their immediate context.

THE "SHEDDING ABROAD" OF THE HOLY SPIRIT. Acts 2:32-36. This is a compact set of verses, brim-full of theological gems: i. The crucifixion of Jesus (Acts 2:36); ii. His resurrection (Acts 2:32); and iii. His exaltation to the right hand of God (Acts 2:33). The passage is also ...read more

Experiencing The Holy Spirit

Contributed by Scott Maze on May 18, 2021

Life demands an energy from you that is not IN you. We call this “burn out.” In order to truly navigate all that life throws at you, you need a power not from within you but from the outside. This is why you need the outside power of the Holy Spirit.

I invite you to turn to Acts 2 as we return back to our study in Acts after some time away. This morning, I want to speak to you about “Experiencing on the Holy Spirit.” To begin 2018, we are going to focus on the Holy Spirit. Yet, many of us think of God the Father and we speak of Jesus Christ ...read more
