Alive In The Spirit: He's Here! - Jo Leutton

Ever wondered what actually changes after Easter? This message kicks off a new series leading up to Pentecost, unpacking what it means when the Holy Spirit doesn't just visit but actually moves in permanently.

Using everything from Doctor Who references (yes, really) to Paul's letters, we explore how the Spirit transforms us from the inside out. When we say yes to Jesus, we don't just get forgiven: we become dwelling places of the living God. That's not just poetic language; it's the power that raised Jesus from the dead, taking up residence in you.

The message traces God's desire to dwell with His people, from the garden, to the tabernacle, to the temple, to Jesus Himself, and finally to us. We're not floating off to some cloudy heaven; God is recreating heaven and earth, and the Spirit is preparing us for that reality starting now.

There's an invitation here: to make space for the Spirit, to ask for more of Him, and to live in the freedom He brings. No performance required, no earning necessary—just an open heart asking to know God more deeply.
