Life on earth is a journey toward eternity. And how we live is paramount to our destiny. The pivotal moment of our journey began with a choice to receive Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior, making our hearts His home. At that moment, the Holy Spirit took the reigns and changed our course. As we walk through life being led by God and transformed by the Spirit, we experience a series of movements by the power of the Holy Spirit. The Spirit-Filled Journey: Experiencing God's Love is a companion for our journey. It invites God's people to spend an entire year unpacking, understanding, and being inspired by what it really means ... To be saved by grace and grace alone To be born of the Spirit To be God's child To be connected to other believers To be secured by the love of God Written by ministers and members of Apostolic Church of God, The Spirit-Filled Journey: Experiencing God's Love is the first in a devotional series designed to strengthen your walk with the Lord and deepen your faith in Him. Founded in 1921, the Apostolic Church of God is a mega church located in Chicago, Illinois.
