PODCAST INTRO
Welcome back. This week, we are going to focus on the Role of the Holy Spirit in helping you in your Spiritual Growth process with the Lord.
Again, Just a quick reminder about the 3 Essentials that we are talking about in case you missed the first few episodes in the series:
1) Birth – We must have a spiritual beginning, being born again as the Scripture describes it
2) Growth – Once we have begun, we need to grow in our faith and understanding of God’s Word
3) Reproduction – The Scripture gives us the task of sharing what we know with others, helping them to come into relationship with God and helping them to grow in their faith as well
The Holy Spirit is part of God’s Plan for helping us to grow spiritually. In today’s podcast, I will answer the following questions:
- Who is the Comforter who Jesus promises to send in John 14?
- What is the purpose of the Comforter?
- How did Jesus fulfill His promise?
- Is the Holy Spirit still working in our lives today?
Special Note:
This is the last podcast in the 3 Essentials for Christian Living – Spiritual Growth Series. Next week, we will be covering the Third Christian Essential – Reproduction.

John 14: 16, 26 John 16:8, 13 Acts 1:8 Acts 2:1-4, 37-42
Consider These Questions – Personal Assessment
If you have accepted Jesus into your life, the Holy Spirit is operating in your life. Can you list some of the ways the Holy Spirit is working in your life?
What is the purpose of being filled with the Holy Spirit?
What results can we expect to see in our lives if we ask the Holy Spirit to help us?
Have you received any special “Gifts of the Spirit”? 1 Corinthians 12:1-11
If so, what are they and how are you using them to benefit others?
