Current Reflection

Blowing in the Wind

We will soon be celebrating and then living in the Season of Pentecost.   While often a lesser known or observed day in the Church year, Pentecost is a significant day.  On Pentecost we recognize the birth of the Church in the upper room as the followers of Jesus gathered in Jerusalem (see Acts 2).

Often we associate Pentecost, or the Holy Spirit, with wind.  There is in fact a root word association for Spirit and wind.   And the description of the Spirit’s descent at Pentecost includes the phrase, “like the rush of a violent wind”.  It’s this aspect of the Holy Spirit that I’d like to invite you to reflect on.....Click here to read more
