Episode Synopsis
John 15:26-27; 16:4b-11
Even before he died, Jesus was busy preparing his disciples for the time when he wouldn't be with them physically. After his ascension, they had to adjust to a new reality–one that today's Christians have known as their entire existence–life in a world without Jesus physically present.
Even though Jesus ascended back to heaven in glory, he promised he would not leave his disciples alone. He would send the Holy Spirit as their Advocate, Guide, Counselor, Comforter, and more. On Pentecost, we celebrate the specific and spectacular fulfillment of that promise to the disciples.
Pentecost is also a celebration of the truth of that promise for every believer since. Jesus doesn't leave us alone. He sends his Holy Spirit to our side to comfort, guide, enlighten, and empower us!
