The Spirit-Filled Life (Part 2) Series

Contributed by Scott Bayles on Jan 13, 2024

Does the Holy Spirit still speak? Absolutely. He speaks to us through his whispers, his witnesses, and his Word. And he may speak to you in other ways too, if you’re listening. “The true children of God are those who let God’s Spirit lead them” (Romans 8:14).

Contributed by Fred Sigle on May 20, 2024

A study of the Beatitudes. Jesus begins His sermon on the mount answering the question: "What will it take to make you happy?" His answer, however, is far different from the way most people will answer. In fact, his answers appear to bring sorrow, not happiness.
