GUIDING LIGHT: A 4-WEEK SERIES ON WISDOM
WEEK 1 BIG IDEA: God gives us the Holy Spirit.

SERIES OVERVIEW:

Whether you’re not sure what you think about God just yet or your faith in Jesus runs deep, let’s be honest — things would be a lot easier if God spoke to us in really obvious ways. Audible words. Obvious signs. Guiding lights. It would be so much easier to find guidance, feel comforted, or make difficult decisions if we could actually see God with our eyes and hear God’s voice with our ears. Well, there’s some good news. Jesus couldn’t stick around on earth forever, but He hasn’t left us alone. He sent the Holy Spirit in His place. In this 4-week series about wisdom, we’ll get better acquainted with how God’s Spirit guides us as we discover how the Holy Spirit is God’s gift to us who shows us truth, gives us wisdom, and helps us love.

First impressions can last a lifetime. Your first meal in a new restaurant will likely determine if you ever return, a tv show pilot will either start a new habit in your life or be the only episode of that show you watch, and a teenager’s first visit to our ministry is crucial to their future opinions. So what can we do to make our ministry more welcoming?
