Wondering about the Spirit?

If you have been around Living Hope for the past 4-5 years you have probably heard us talk about the Holy Spirit and about our need to be filled with the Holy Spirit. Have you ever wondered what that means?  Have you ever wondered why you need the Holy Spirit?  Have you ever wondered who the Holy Spirit really is?

For many years I wondered about the Holy Spirit.   I grew up going to church and heard references to the Holy Spirit, but never really understood why the Holy Spirit was important.  My Bible College experience helped me to understand who the Holy Spirit is, but it didn’t answer all my questions.  For a long time I wondered how I could be filled with the Holy Spirit and how I would know if I was.  Throughout all my years of wondering I longed to know and experience more of the Holy Spirit.  Maybe you have experienced something similar?

This weekend we are starting a new teaching series that is focused on answering the questions we all have about the Holy Spirit.  For the next four weeks we’ll be exploring why the Holy Spirit is important, who the Holy Spirit really is, what the Holy Spirit does, and how you can be filled with the Holy Spirit today.  I hope you’ll join us this weekend as we discover the Forgotten Spirit and the Spirit-filled life Jesus envisions for each of us to live.

See you Sunday,

Pastor Kirk

Holy Spirit Encounter for Kids

Did you know that the same Holy Spirit who is in you, is in your children?  There is no junior Holy Spirit.  This means that the same way the Spirit speaks to you and empowers you, he empowers your kids.  That’s why we are hosting a Holy Spirit Encounter for kids on Saturday, April 14 from 9 am until noon.  Contact Pastor Shauna for more details and to register your child.

Hearing God’s Voice

Have you ever wanted to hear God’s voice, but didn’t know how?  Have you ever wished God would speak to you about something in your life?  Did you know that God still speaks to us today, just as he did to people in the Bible?  Join Pastor Kirk on Saturday, April 14 from 9 am to noon as he leads a 3 hour seminar and practicum on how to hear the voice of God.  To register contact Pastor Kirk
