Summary

Lots of believers have questions about the Holy Spirit—like who is He? And should I “feel” Him? Does the Holy Spirit show up today like He did in the Bible? And why do other believers seem to have a connection with the Holy Spirit, and I don't?

Well, if you’ve ever wondered these things, you’re not alone—and you’re in the right place.

Today on the 4:13, Margaret Feinberg will take you on a journey through Scripture—from the Old Testament to Pentecost—to uncover how the Spirit has been at work since the very beginning.

She’ll answer your burning questions about the Spirit, including how to recognize His work in you and around you, whether or not He still speaks to His people through dreams, and how to discern between something that is Spirit-led and something that is self-led.

And most importantly, she’ll help you realize that you don’t have to settle for just knowing about the Holy Spirit—you can truly know Him.

0:29.3	Help me become more aware of you.
0:35.3	Any of these questions sound familiar to you? What role should the Holy Spirit play in my life?
0:42.1	Should I feel him? Like, how is the Spirit part of my relationship with Christ? And why doesn't
0:49.1	the Spirit's work show up in my life the way it did in the Bible? And why do other believers seem to have a connection with the Holy Spirit?
0:58.1	And I just don't?
1:00.3	Oh, my friends, even longtime Jesus followers have questions about the Holy Spirit.
1:06.6	We can feel stymied and confused.
1:09.5	But that is going to end with this episode
