In this eighth episode of the GROW Group Podcast, the group dives deep into the topic of the Holy Spirit, focusing on the distinction between indwelling and filling, the meaning of abiding in Christ, and what it looks like to live a life plugged in to God’s presence. With a blend of spiritual insights, personal stories, and a few humorous moments (like midnight snacking and tech experiments), the conversation explores how to practically live out one’s faith and embody the Great Commission in everyday life. Discussions range from biblical truths to modern-day application, all centered on the transformative role of the Holy Spirit in a believer’s life.If you want to follow along with our daily scripture readings, Anchored devotional guides are available on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Amazon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.⏱️ Timecoded Episode Guide00:00–02:00 – 🏠 Lighthearted banterIntro to Week 8, personal updates, family stories, and some laughs about food and midnight snacking.02:00–04:00 – 📺 Tech setups & travelBarry shares about office experiments with monitors; others discuss recent trips to NYC and family visits.04:00–05:00 – 🔁 Week in review & Holy Spirit introTransition into the week’s topic—Holy Spirit: indwelling vs. filling.05:00–07:00 – 🔥 Defining the Holy Spirit’s rolesExplanation of the indwelling (occurs at salvation) vs. filling (ongoing empowerment) with scriptural support (Ephesians 1, 1 Corinthians).07:00–10:00 – 🌱 Abiding in ChristDiscussion about what it means to abide—a minute-by-minute choice to live plugged into God.10:00–12:00 – 🙏 Power, joy & prayerHow abiding impacts answered prayer, personal joy, and spiritual productivity.12:00–14:30 – 📖 Galatians 5 breakdownDetailed look at Galatians 5 to highlight how abiding produces the fruit of the Spirit.14:30–17:00 – 🧠 Greek grammar & spiritual growthInsights on passive/subjunctive Greek verbs—“be filled” meaning if you let it happen, not something you do on your own.17:00–20:00 – 💼 Work as worshipBringing faith into everyday life; how every believer is a missionary in their sphere.20:00–23:00 – 🔄 Mission mindset & interdependenceGod’s design for interdependence through work and service as spiritual calling.23:00–26:00 – 💵 Stewardship & Spirit-led influenceTying the Holy Spirit to stewardship of time, talent, and treasure; recognizing every role as a mission.26:00–29:00 – 🔍 Spiritual influence in daily lifeLiving as a reflection of Christ in daily interactions, being a magnetic presence when Spirit-filled.29:00–33:00 – 🧘 Limbic resonance & spiritual peaceBarry introduces the concept of “limbic resonance” and how being in God’s presence affects us mentally and emotionally.33:00–36:00 – 💭 Self-reflection & God’s all-in commitmentReflections on whether we’re giving God as much as He’s given us, and clearing up misconceptions about losing salvation.36:00–39:00 – 🙌 Sealed by the SpiritExplaining security in salvation vs. loss of joy/fellowship; story of drifting from faith but being drawn back by the Spirit.39:00–43:00 – 💔 Love deeply & pray intentionallyReflections on loving others well (1 Peter 4:8), prayer requests, clarity in confusing times, and closing thoughts.43:00–45:00 – 🙏 Group prayer & outroBrandon leads a prayer, podcast wraps up with encouragement and info on devotional journal.
