The Spirit of Pentecost

I love the Pentecost story! Like Christmas and Easter, there’s something wonderfully mysterious about this holy day that compels us to come and see for ourselves what all the commotion is about. It’s about welcoming the Holy Spirit into our lives; it’s about getting swept up into the story of Jesus and his love, building our faith on the foundation of that story, and then sharing it with others. Bottom line, Pentecost comes down to one thing: our confession of faith. Will we accept the Spirit’s invitation to believe in the truths of who Jesus is and commit our lives to following him and his ways?
