What if the miracle of Pentecost was not just speaking in other languages…but fearful people becoming faithful witnesses? The Spirit did not come so believers could hide better. The Spirit came to move the Church into the world. If you’ve ever felt spiritually stuck, afraid, weary, or unsure how God could use someone ordinary, this message is for you. “Ready to Be Moved” this Sunday.
