Episode Synopsis

This Pentecost Sunday, Father Geoff invites us to reflect on the Spirit of Truth and the human longing for certainty. From Philip’s honest plea to see the Father, to our modern appetite for control, we’re reminded that true faith is not built on proof—but on hope.With humor, personal stories, and a memorable Jell-O demonstration, this sermon explores how gripping too tightly to our plans can keep us from experiencing the peace, joy, and transformation the Spirit offers.We are called to release control, to listen in the silence, and to trust that the Spirit is already here—bidden or unbidden—guiding us into love, truth, and life.🎧 New episodes of The Crossing are posted each Sunday by 5PM.
