Wednesday night we began a brand new series - PNEUMA: A Series on the Holy Spirit!
Who is the Holy Spirit, and what exactly does He do? These are questions that countless believers struggle with answering. Most don't realize the Holy Spirit is a person who thinks, feels, and has desires. In the Greek, the Spirit is called the Pneuma. What's more, the Holy Spirit is present to help you live the Christian life. He's there to give comfort and empowerment and be your advocate. The Holy Spirit has not been poured out on us to prove how great we are, but to prove the greatness of the Son of God. Scripture is quite clear: Jesus has been glorified, and therefore the Pneuma is resting upon us. Join us all month long as we clear up misconceptions about who He is and insightfully explain the person of the Holy Spirit!
In the month of April, we have also initiated an additional means of making disciples. From this month on ELEVATION will be recommending a monthly book to read to help supplement the growth of God and maturity within our students. Our leaders and students alike are encouraged to read with us Spiritual Leadership by J. Oswald Sanders - one of the most influential books in my own spiritual development as it relates to leadership in His kingdom! This book will totally bless your life; a game changer really.
In addition to a recommended read, ELEVATION also now has its own monthly Bible reading plan as well. You can pick those up on any Wednesday evening or Sunday morning and it is posted here as well. What a blessing to be able to read through the Scriptures together as a ministry!
