Happy New Year, New Life!
I have shared this with you several times before, but in 2012, towards the end of the House Church Seminar for Pastors, I prayed to God: “God, I will do whatever You ask me to do in spreading house church ministry, as long as the invitation doesn’t conflict with New Life’s schedule.” It’s been almost 13 years since I prayed that prayer, and I believe I have been faithful to God in keeping the promise I made to Him.

The Holy Spirit Came
Dear Parents,
When Jesus ascended to heaven, He instructed the disciples to go to Jerusalem and wait. Jesus promised that the Holy Spirit would come upon them. So the disciples went back to Jerusalem, where they waited and prayed.
The time came for the Jewish festival called Pentecost, or the Feast of Weeks. As with the Passover festival, Jews from all over the Roman Empire would be at the temple in Jerusalem.
During this festival, the Holy Spirit came to believers in Jerusalem. They heard a sound like a violent, rushing wind. When the Holy Spirit filled the ...
