Through Us (3 of 3)
Series: Presence
Jeff Geyer
Genesis 1:1-3; 11:1-9; Acts 2:1-6; 1 Corinthians 12:4-26
Big Idea: The Spirit has given us gifts to work through us for the benefit of others.
Intro: Let's recap the last two weeks before we step into the final message of this series.

Today we'll look at how the Holy Spirit works through us.
Tension: Have you ever been jealous of Jesus' disciples? He sat across from them at the dinner table most nights They went everywhere together for 3 years They could ask Him about anything and if He wasn't clear, they could poke on the shoulder and ask what He meant
