Today is Pentecost Sunday, the Sunday we celebrate the church’s birthday. Pentecost marks the end of the Easter season. For Christians, it is a memorial of the day the Holy Spirit descended upon the apostles in the form of fiery tongues, an even t that took place fifty days after the Resurrection of Jesus. In today’s message, Pastor Wallace reminds us that Pentecost is an event of both the past and the present. The gift of the Holy Spirit is still alive and should move us to action and inspire us to share this gift with others. In this message, you will see what happens to a group of gathered people together when the Holy Spirit is breathed into them, when God breathes into them the breath of life. Your life will be changed, you will be empowered to be and do God’s work – to speak loudly and act forcibly.
Acts 2:1-4;42-47 (NRSV)
