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.

“Bless me, even me also, O my father.” Esau arrived moments too late, and many people live in that same posture. But if the blessing is already secured in Christ, the question is no longer how to get it — it is what activates it.

Satan has many tools, and deception may be the most dangerous, because deceived people rarely know they are drifting. Jacob and Isaac show how blindness and unchecked appetite create the conditions — and why willpower is not the remedy.

The Transfiguration as the hinge where Old Testament glory hands off to New. Pastor Adam finds three deliberate echoes of Exodus in the scene, and borrows from Lewis to argue that glory is not brightness or achievement — it is acceptance.

Moses asks to see God’s glory and is put in the cleft of a rock. Pastor Adam traces glory from something rare, restricted and risky, through the incarnation, to something a believer is now invited to host rather than merely behold.
