Romans 8:9-30
One of the most intimate names for the Holy Spirit in Scripture is "the Spirit of adoption" used by Paul in Romans 8. In this passage we see five ways the Holy Spirit makes our adoption a reality for our lives.
In Step With the Spirit - The Holy Spirit Grieved and Quenched
Ephesians 4:25-32 and 1 Thessalonians 5:12-22
Why are there times in the Christian life when it seems like God’s presence is palpable & invigorating, but there are other times when things feel empty & hollow? We'll look at 5 ways we grieve or quench the Holy Spirit, and 5 ways to please the Spirit so He can do the work He desires to do.

In Step With the Spirit - Life In and According to the Spirit
Romans 8:1-13
Everyone knows that where you live impacts how you live. One need only spend one winter in Vermont to learn that shorts and T-shirt are not four-season attire here. If we live in Vermont, we need to live according to Vermont. Life in the Spirit is similar. If we live in the Spirit, we need to live according to the Spirit. Romans 8:1-13 shows us what this looks like.
In Step With the Spirit - Another of the Same Kind
John 14-16
We begin a 4-part series on the Holy Spirit by looking at Jesus' teaching about the "another Helper". Don't you wish Jesus had just stayed physically present on earth? Wouldn't that make this life of faith better? Jesus tells us it's to our advantage that He go & we'll see five reasons why this is so true!
God @ Work - Good Work
John 20 and 21
In John 20 and 21, the resurrected Jesus meets His disciples in two distinct contexts, calling them to Good Work which will have profound consequences. As we wrap up this series, we'll consider what part we will play in God@Work through our good work.

God @ Work - Just Work
Isaiah 58:1-8
We don't just work, God calls us to just work, bringing healing & wholeness, a foretaste of the Kingdom of God to others. Just work is what the righteous do. Isaiah 58 tells us what that looks like.
God @ Work - Hard Work
Genesis 3:16-19, Ecclesiastes 2:17-26
Last week we saw that God is redeeming a world gone wrong. Part of what's gone wrong is that sin has made work discouraging, dissatisfying & disorienting. The good news is, God's redemption touches even our work.
God @ Work - God's Work
Genesis 1 - 3
As we begin a series on work, we need to start with God's work. We need to start by understanding where it all began & where it's all going if we're to understand how the work we do fits in. Our work fits in to God's redeeming work!
