Among God’s greatest gifts to his people is the gift of the Holy Spirit, our Helper and Advocate, as Jesus refers to him in John’s Gospel. As we continue with our Conviction series this week, we will consider just what a gift it is to have on our side someone who knows us fully, who loves us unconditionally, and who leads us into all truth, including the truth about ourselves through the conviction of sin. Come this week and bring a friend as we seek to reflect on and encounter the gift and work of the Holy Spirit together.

- Series Description - 

This Lenten season, we will create space for the Lord to move for the sake of growing closer to Jesus and the way of Jesus. The way of Jesus is life and life abundant. It is also life through constraint, sacrifice, and even suffering. Our own missing the mark, our own sin, keeps that life far from us and keeps the work of death close. Pursuing life means giving God space to convict us of sin and to embrace us with forgiveness. Conviction of sin by the God of love gives us space to seek God for life, mercy, and for forgiveness. Condemnation simply closes us in our own darkness. It robs us of hope. Yes, conviction exposes our sin as light piercing darkness. However, the revelatory light of conviction is joined by the warmth of the Father’s love for us. We will experience both this Lent as we go deeper with Conviction & Embrace, our Lenten teaching series.
