Pentecost: The Amazing Movement of God

Raised Catholic

This week we're taking a look back to episode 77: Pentecost Basics, and remind ourselves of the great gift that it's not all up to us. In a story I'll tell, we'll see that God makes a way, and it's sometimes it's a way we could never have predicted or made on our own, but it's so good.
