Knowing Jesus and the Spirit
In John 16, Jesus tells His disciples they will die after His departure, but He also encourages them that their sorrow will turn to joy. We discover why it is to our advantage that Jesus leaves and sends the Holy Spirit. Some Christians seem to ignore the Holy Spirit. Some Christians emphasize the Holy Spirit in a way that is disconnected from the Bible and from the ministry of Jesus. We learn how to think about the Holy Spirit and why we should be encouraged by His ministry among us.

We also believe God is the Redeemer. Even though God is all-powerful and independent of His creation, yet He chooses to engage us and make Himself knowable to us even when we have rebelled against Him. We learn how we should respond to our Creator-Redeemer.

    Knowing Jesus as Restorer
     
    In John 21, Jesus addresses Peter’s denial and He restores Peter. We learn that we are all in need of restoration and God delights in restoring us to use us. We also learn this restoration is often difficult and even painful. However, we are encouraged because God’s restoration is worth it!
