Pentecost is one of the most important festivals in the church year. Yet, the meaning of this important festival is sometimes lost on us. In this sermon, Fr. Stephen shows how Pentecost reveals that God's promises are trustworthy even when their fulfillment takes longer than we hope. It also shows us that God empowers us to do tasks we couldn't do on our own.


Scripture reference: Acts 2:1-21

Preached by the Rev. Stephen Silverthorne on June 9, 2019, Pentecost Sunday

Sermon Highlights

  • Pentecost shows us we are wrapped up in God's bigger plans
  • The Spirit's coming is the fulfillment of a promise from God made centuries before
  • God's promise was fulfilled in God's time-frame, not ours
  • This encourages us to trust in God's promises
  • This challenges us to accept God's timing is different than ours
  • Pentecost shows us God can empower people to do what they can't normally do
  • We have been given difficult tasks by God
  • We can do them if we open ourselves to God's Spirit
