Holy Spirit is still alive and kicking!!!!!!
One of the main deceptions that we deal with on campus is the idea that the Holy Spirit, along with His gifts (1 Cor. 12, 14), are not for today. This couldn't be further from the truth. This idea is refuted both biblically and experientially. Why am I so excited about this today? Well, the Holy Spirit just came in power and might on our little Bible study at St. Cloud State University last night! Students were filled with the Holy Spirit for the first time or experienced a refilling (Eph. 5 talks about being filled with the Holy Spirit...greek word tense denotes continual filling). Some spoke in tongues for the first time. Some received prophetic words and encouraging promises from Scripture. Either way, it was special. Thank you Jesus, the baptizer, for your good gifts through the Holy Spirit!! Go to spiritformed.com and check out the resources page for a tract on the Baptism of the Holy Spirit if you want to learn more.

I got filled with the Holy Spirit on March 23, 2004. I know, weird that I remember dates like that. But it was the same date, so it caught my attention. Lord, my cup is empty - won't you come now and fill me up?!
Something I asked of both Jelani and Joe...
If I can't see the Spirit alive and active in the people closest to me, my friends, and never once experience things like tongues around them...
How am I to believe in the Spirit as our church does, as opposed to how I was traditionally raised?

Hey, just checking to see if your students are all OK after the collapse.
