Big Idea of the Series: This four-week series examines the work of the Holy Spirit in the lives of the believers and challenges our faith to use this gift. What did Jesus promise us about the Spirit? How did the early church demonstrate the truth of those promises? In what ways are we using the Spirit that God has poured out?Week 1Text: Acts 2:1–11Topic(s): Courageous Faith, Holy Spirit, Power, LoveBig Idea of the Message: Sometimes, the Holy Spirit gets lost in the Trinity. Jesus & God are more tangible, and easier to understand. The Holy Spirit is just as important to our walk with Jesus. Who is He? What does He bring to the world, and our lives?

Big Idea of the Message: Observing the Sabbath gives us a weekly glimpse of eternity.
Application Point: You can cultivate an eternal perspective by intentionally taking time away from the busyness of this world.

If you live with an eternal perspective, you will take actions to share that vision with others. If your faith never leaves the realm of thoughts or emotional security, is it really faith?

To live with an eternal perspective,We have to see the value of eternity with God. Our relationship with your possessions can tell us a lot about whether you have an eternal perspective in life.
