Summary
Pastor Mark Turman was so encouraged by Dr. Denison's book about the Holy Spirit, titled Empowered, that he asked to record its 47 chapters as daily readings for his church.
When Dr. Denison heard about this, he suggested the great idea to release these recordings as bonus episodes of The Daily Article Podcast every day from Ash Wednesday to Easter.
We hope that you will likewise be encouraged by these short, insightful, and empowering podcast episodes.

| 0:47.3 | desperation, God, help me. Instantly, she heard a voice say, reach up here. He looked up and saw, to her amazement, a smiling young man in a swimsuit, standing on a rock, |
| 0:59.4 | his hand extended to hers. |
| 1:01.7 | She threw her arm into his, and he pulled her from the undertow to safety. |
| 1:07.4 | After she caught her breath, the young man pointed to a pylon on the beach at a sharp angle |

| 1:26.6 | She swam a little further and looked back again, but he was gone. |

| 1:38.5 | I went for a swim out to the rock, she said. The owner of the beachfront property came and asked her, what rock? There's no |
