Do you hunger for meaningful life-giving relationships with others traveling this road called life? Have you tried to forge these relationships and found it frustrating, if not impossible? You get into a small group, and it is boring, or a sharing of ignorance, or non-guided and always running off on bunny trails, or someone dominates the group so others can’t share. So what do you do? Where do you go? How can you find or create a small group where meaningful relationships are established?

Here is Pastor Art's journal entry after a very powerful service at United Methodist Church where he did not preach because of the extended prayer, praise, worship and prophecies. This is a church where a core of the people hear the voice of God and know how to move in the gifts of the Holy Spirit. Pray for a fuller manifestation of His glorious presence!
Since the historical Church has minimized the role of the Holy Spirit, and replaced living by the Spirit (Gal. 5:25) with living by the Bible, we need to restore Him to His rightful place in our lives.
