First Cary UMC's First Sanctuary Sermon "Spirit on Fire” – Rev. Ben Alexander – June 8, 2025
Scripture: Acts 2:1-21
When the Holy Spirit arrives, it does not arrive quietly. Instead, it shows up like wind and fire. As we celebrate Pentecost this Sunday in worship, may we recognize the ways that the Spirit transforms a fearful group towards bold faith. This moment is not just about the birth of the church - but more so about its becoming. As we look at the identity of the church, we come to find that its diversity is divine as those gathered speak many languages and cross cultural boundaries. What does it mean to be a church with a Spirit such as this?
