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.

| 0:08.9 | Empowered, Day 47, Easter Sunday. The Spirit Raises Us. |
| 0:16.2 | Murdo MacDonald was a prisoner of war in Germany and a chaplain to American soldiers. After the war was over, |
| 0:25.3 | he told how he learned of the Normandy invasion. Early on D-Day, he was awakened and told that a |

| 0:40.8 | The Scott, who was in touch with the BBC by underground radio, had often given updates on the |

| 1:12.6 | And everyone knew the Allies had landed at Normandy. |
| 1:17.6 | The reaction was incredible. |
| 1:19.6 | Men jumped and shouted, hugged each other, and even rolled on the ground. |
| 1:24.6 | They were still captives, but now they were certain of their deliverance, |
| 1:29.3 | all because of three words. They have come. Twenty centuries ago, the angel announced to Mary |
| 1:37.8 | Magdalene and to all the world, he has risen. All around the world on Easter Sunday, billions of Christians speaking hundreds of |
| 1:48.3 | languages announced the same news. Many follow the ancient formula. The pastor states, |
| 1:55.9 | He is risen. And the people respond, He is risen indeed. As Jesus rose from his tomb, |
| 2:03.3 | so you will rise from yours one day. |
| 2:06.1 | The same Holy Spirit who raised him from the dead |
