In this episode of Perspectives FUMCSD Pastors Podcast, Rev. Brittany and Rev. Trudy discuss opening up to the Holy Spirit – the role that willingness had in the experience of the early church and the role it has in our life today.

It’s part of “Becoming Better Humans” – a multi-episode topic where the women clergy of the First Church of San Diego explore the story of the early church, looking at the days after the resurrection of Jesus, to see how the courage and perseverance of the apostles may help us all live better today.

First up is “Opening” – our acknowledgment of the Holy Spirit, the convictions we receive, and our willingness to acknowledge and act on them. The Holy Spirit is mentioned over 180 times throughout the Bible, so there is a lot to discuss.

  2. What gets in the way of you following the Holy Spirit's nudges?
  3. What is the Holy Spirit calling us and you to do with Its power?
