This is a sermon I gave last night at Michiana Covenant Presbyterian Church in Granger, Indiana. It was Pentecost, and although the Presbyterians generally don’t pay a lot of attention to the church year, I thought it would be appropriate to preach on Jesus’ promise of the Holy Spirit in John 14. When you look closely at what Jesus said, the coming of the Spirit has got some jaw dropping implications for us. I teased out some of these in this message.
