Receiving the Spirit

Ben Green | Acts 1:4-5,8 | Acts 2:1-21 

[Jesus said], ‘You will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.’

When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place. Suddenly a sound like the blowing of a violent wind came from heaven and filled the whole house where they were sitting. They saw what seemed to be tongues of fire that separated and came to rest on each of them. All of them were filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak in other tongues as the Spirit enabled them.

We finish our series "Resurrection People" by celebrating the day of Pentecost, when the Holy Spirit came to bring the church into being and empower it to live out Jesus' resurrection life. This All Age service tells the story in dramatised form, and Ben Green explains how we can know the Spirit's power each day.
