Lunchbox Pneumatology Session 1

Introduction

My goal: Confidence in helping people answer Paul’s question to the Ephesian believers in Acts 19. Also to get the church to start asking the same question.

When did you realize you were breathing? Before, simul or after you were actually breathing?

Rublev’s icon of the Holy Trinity

Nouwen: “Andrew Rublev painted [in 1425] this icon not only to share the fruits of his own meditation on the mystery of the Holy Trinity but also to offer his fellow monks a way to keep their hearts centered in God while living in the midst of political unrest...the movement from the Father toward the Son and the movement of both Son and Spirit toward the Father become a movement in which the one who prays is lifted up and held secure.” Behold the Beauty of the Lord, Henri J.M. Nouwen. Ave Maria Press 1987.
