DISCUSSION Pentecost - is it about Jesus or the Holy Spirit


Listen Later

Barbara, Emily and Josh chat about Rolf's sermon from 31 May, Pentecost. The reading was Acts 2:1-21 with lots of fun place names and races! This discussion came amidst the protests and demonstrations across the world in response to the murder of George Floyd, which Rolf picked up in his sermon. After Emily offers a summary of the sermon the team consider the need to be one in Christ, the way crowds are seen by Jesus, how they've made connections to other Christians in the past, what Jesus might do in the current climate, and the real focus of Pentecost - is it about Jesus or the Holy Spirit.
