The Upper Room 16 November 08 - Spirit (Part 3): Power (Mick Martin)

For a local church community to be a creative work of the Holy Spirit, we need to be completely open to the power of the Spirit and ready to yield to whatever the Spirit might want to do in and through us. While God is bigger than any theology, a narrow theology of the Spirit can limit the extent to which we are able to experience the fullness of what the Spirit wants to bring to our lives.

The Upper Room 9 November 08 - Spirit (Part 2): Presence (Mick Martin)

This week we look at the Holy Spirit as the abiding presence of God among human beings. Since the beginning, God’s desire has been to dwell among us. Even after the first humans rebelled and hid from his presence, God has not stopped relentlessly pursuing humanity with a view to restoring the intimacy and close communion with him that is our eternal destiny.

The Upper Room 2 November 08 - Spirit (Part 1): Person (Mick Martin)

Several times in John’s gospel, Jesus talks about the Holy Spirit as One whom the Father would send after he, Jesus, had returned to the Father. Clearly Jesus saw the Holy Spirit as vital to the continuation of God’s mission in the earth through his church. And yet within the church generally there seems to be a lot of uncertainty and disagreement about the nature of the Spirit’s role and how we are to understand and experience the Spirit in our lives.
