Henri Nouwen
Rich VillodasRich Villodas

Pentecost is our annual reminder that God has given the Church the Holy Spirit, not to satisfy our private, insatiable lust for more experiences, but to mark us at witnesses of Jesus’ kingdom. A kingdom marked by love, justice, forgiveness, and reconciliation. #Pentecost

Christian Life
Rich VillodasRich Villodas
