Living Life with Spirit

“When the day of Pentecost came, they were all together in one place.” — Acts 2:1

Ever tried to ride a dead horse? Of course not. But we’ve all been there—strapping on the saddle, digging in our heels, shouting “Giddy-up!” to something long past its expiration date.

You’re leading a class, and no one dreams anymore. They’re scrolling through life like ghosts with glowing thumbs. You’re steering a team, but instead of catching your fire, they’re quietly hoping you cool off. You’re trying to take your business to the next level, but the crew’s still polishing trophies from a decade ago.

That’s life without Spirit. And you can’t ride that horse.

You can’t make your kids love school when their hearts are unplugged. You try to build a better marriage, but it feels like learning to dance in a fog, with lead boots. You show up at church, and instead of Pentecost fire, you get lukewarm coffee and polite yawns.

The truth is, we don’t need more clever plans or motivational speeches. We need wind. Fire. Breath. We need Spirit.

Pentecost was no quiet moment. It was a wildfire of heaven breaking loose. And it’s not just a story from the past—it’s an invitation for now. Because when the Spirit comes, dry bones dance. Old dreams rise. Dead horses? Suddenly gallop.

Join us this Sunday at 10:30 a.m. Pastor Mark is bringing the match! Let’s stop dragging what’s dead and start living what’s alive.

Quote of the Day:

“Without the Spirit of God, we can do nothing. We are as ships without wind. We are useless.” — Charles Spurgeon

Joke of the Day:

What do you call a church with no Holy Spirit?

A Christian Book Club with snacks.

See you Sunday.

Your friend for the rest of my life,
