It always made her feel good so the memories were sweet. Since they never discussed the theology behind it, Jenn just chalked it up to “that thing Mom does”. However, many years later, with no understanding or desire for the baptism with the Holy Spirit, Jenn found herself at a conference where the speaker was praying over the crowd for that very thing. While the prayer was calling her spirit to attention, Jenn’s body remained stuck in the seat…until divine intervention helped her to respond.

They didn’t teach Pentecost as something for today, but the Holy Spirit began to personally woo her into “The More” behind the scenes. After a thorough study of Scripture convinced her that Holy Spirit baptism was a real thing, she began to seek it out. But preconceived notions of what this event would be like hindered her. The enemy took further advantage of the situation, whispering lies that God Himself was rejecting her attempts because she was not worthy enough to receive it. After 6 years of gentle and patient revelation, she finally encountered the truth: He had ALWAYS wanted this for her. (And He wants it for you, too!)

Joanna was immersed in church life since birth, but growing up, her relationship with God seemed different than what many of her friends described. The desire to figure this out led Joanna into uncomfortable experiences that offended her mind, but her spirit kept drawing her back to these places where the power and freedom of God was being expressed. Joanna shares her story of how God has now brought her full circle as a worship leader at the same church she angrily stormed out of many years ago.

She grew up thinking this exciting atmosphere of healing, deliverance and the presence of God was “the better way” of Christianity. But when she got to college and stepped outside her Pentecostal bubble, Muriel began to realize many of the non-Pentecostal Christians she met seemed to have a more Christ-like character than she did. Muriel shares her story of how God has since been recalibrating her faith to include not just the gifts but also the fruit of the Spirit, and ends with a powerful apology to anyone who has ever been made to feel “less than” by misguided or excited, yet insensitive Pentecostals. The truth is that ALL are invited into The More of God.
