Do we really believe that Pentecost is an ever-present reality in the Church? Just as health or sickness have diagnosable side effects, so too the presence of the Holy Spirit, first poured out at Pentecost, should have visible "side effects" - both in terms of the fruits of personal heart-transformation (love, joy, peace, etc.), and in its repercussions throughout the Church as a whole.
In this episode, Fr. Michael and Fr. Chris break down the effects of Pentecost, following the points offered in the book "Baptism in the Holy Spirit" (International Catholic Charismatic Renewal Services Doctrinal Commission).
Some of the effects of Pentecost discussed include:
- A profound personal knowledge of God's presence
- A deepening commitment to a sacramental life and devotion to Mary and the saints
- An awareness and ability to exercise supernatural charisms for building up the Church
- A boldness for evangelization, especially among the laity
- Movements toward intentional Christian community, properly-ordered social justice, ecumenism, and more!
