Today we'll continue a series centered around the gifts of the Spirit. This area of study can be controversial. There are those who say you aren't saved unless you've been "baptized in the Holy Spirit". There are those who say the gifts of the Spirit are no longer active. Who's right? Pastor Lloyd will answer many of these questions coming up, so turn to First Corinthians chapter twelve and join us.

Today we'll begin a look at the gifts of the Spirit. How many gifts of the Spirit are there? Opinions are varied, as you might guess. There are some that are well known, such as tongues, prophecy, and the like. But there are many others that you might not have considered, and that you might actually possess!

Today on Bridging the Gap, pastor Lloyd Pulley continues his new series on the Holy Spirit with a look at one of the most difficult things about the Holy Spirit for us to understand the fact that The Holy Spirit is a person. How can a Spirit be a person? On the surface, it doesn't make any sense, but stay with us, because pastor Lloyd will make it all clear and understandable.

If you are a Christian, you have a person in your life called The Holy Spirit. That's right – He is a person. A lot of people have a difficult time understanding that. Today's message is designed to answer the questions we have all asked about the person of the Holy Spirit.

The title of today's message is "Led By The Spirit". Now, those four words perfectly capture what our goal should be as Christians - to be led by the Holy Spirit, but what does that entail? Sounds like a rather lofty goal, doesn't it?. We'll begin our journey today in Romans eight.

As misunderstood and underestimated as the Holy Spirit is, we can never spend too much time getting to know Him, and what He can do when we utilize His incredible power. Let me put it this way - if you had a brand new Ferrari, and it just sat in the driveway with the engine off, you wouldn’t be using that car to it’s fullest power, right? Same thing with the Holy Spirit. Let’s get to know Him, and how to receive His power in our lives. 

On today's program, we continue pastor Lloyd's new series on the Holy Spirit. I'm sure you have some very important people in your life. Your spouse, if you're married. Your kids, your parents, the list goes on. But if you are a Christian, you also have a person in your life called The Holy Spirit. That's right – He is a person. A lot of people have a difficult time understanding that. This series is designed to answer the questions we have all asked about the person of the Holy Spirit.

Pastor Lloyd will share some more truths today concerning the gifts of the Holy Spirit. There are those who say you're not really a saved Christian unless you display these gifts. There are those who say the gifts of the Spirit are not even relevant anymore. Who's right? Who's wrong? God's word is where we'll go for the answers, so join us.

Today's topic on Bridging the Gap is the Holy Spirit. When I say "The Gifts of the Holy Spirit", immediately there are those who think something controversial is about to follow. There have been heated debates over the years concerning these gifts, but I think if you'll join us over the next several broadcasts, much of that controversy will be resolved. We'll begin our journey today in John 16:5

Today we bring to a close pastor Lloyd's series on spiritual warfare, titled "Spiritual Warfare 101". The final aspect of our spiritual armor that Paul discussed in Ephesians six was prayer. Now, I realize that prayer isn't necessarily connected with spiritual warfare, but if you understand what prayer is supposed to be then it makes perfect sense that communicating with God is a great way to combat our spiritual enemy.
