Stronger Together

Stronger Together  29

9. Is there a challenge to face? 2

Summary: We live in a hostile world under the power of God’s enemy, Satan. However, The Lord outfits us with his Spirit to stand together and advance his kingdom to the ends of the earth. We are the community of the Spirit, members of Christ’s body in the world.

Additional Reflection:

1. In what ways have you experienced hostility toward Christianity? How did you handle it?

2. Name one way you can be a witness for Christ through the power of the Holy Spirit.

Closing Prayer:

Dear Lord, Thank you for your gift of the Holy Spirit. Help the church to stand strong against the attacks of the enemy. Equip us and unite us as we share the light of Christ with a lost world. Amen.
