The "Impressive" Events of Pentecost

Impressive! You can’t help but marvel when you hear about the events that took place at Pentecost! Whenever we describe something as impressive, we usually mean that it was amazing, astonishing, and incredible to behold. Pentecost was all this an more. And in celebrating this event, yesterday in church, we may have found ourselves thinking, “Wow, I’ll bet that was impressive!” But that word “impressive” refers to much more than just razzle-dazzle. In fact, the ongoing work of the Holy Spirit continues to have an impact and leave a mark this day!
