Every believer has been given a gift by the Holy Spirit — but given for what, and for whom? Pastor Adam opens 1 Corinthians 12 to argue that gifts were never meant to build a platform, then asks the harder question: is yours sitting unused?

Is your church Spirit-filled? Pastor Adam Stadtmiller reframes the question: the primary evidence of the Holy Spirit isn’t what you can do — it’s who you’re becoming. Fruit is grown. Gifts are given. And only one of them requires abiding.

Most of us live far below the capacity available to us. On Pentecost Sunday, Pastor Adam skips the argument about tongues and goes after dunamis — the explosive power Jesus told the disciples to wait for, and what it looks like on an ordinary Tuesday.

The last Sunday of the year goes to the youth pastor, and Vinny Iudici proves James’s point about the tongue at his own expense — with something he said to an eleven-year-old that he clearly still carries. Small things said do not stay small.

Eight weeks of build-up and the fire falls. Pastor Adam asks what being on fire actually means, rules out feeling — and points at a detail he says he only saw this week: the fire took the stones, the dust and the water too.
