DISCIPLES EMPOWERED BY THE HOLY SPIRIT | Pastor Damian Carruthers | April 26, 2026

Last week, we began this journey of Embracing an Adverbial Faith—a faith that is not just something we believe, but something we live: boldly, joyfully, courageously.

Today, we take the next step. Because if last week reminded us that we are growing as disciples, this week reminds us that we are not growing alone. The Holy Spirit is not just an idea or a distant force. The Spirit is God with us—guiding, strengthening, nudging, and sometimes even pushing us into a deeper, fuller life. Not just surviving but truly living. Jesus says, “I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly.” And that word abundantly, that’s where the spark is. That’s where faith becomes something we can feel, something we can see, something we can live out together.
