Praying For A Collision With The Holy Spirit

Contributed by Delray Lentz on Feb 10, 2023

Today’s message will be centered around Acts 1:4-5, and we’ll look at several passages that will bolster this message, and why I believe the body of Christ (the church) needs a collision; now perhaps, more than any other time in our history.
