About this journey

A journey is a short, themed path through Scripture, one day at a time: a passage to read, a short reflection, a question to journal on and a prayer.

Start at day 1 and go at your own pace — your progress and private journal are saved on this device and synced if you sign in. A “Beta” tag means a pastor has not reviewed the journey yet.

Pentecost: Power from on High

Before he ascended, Jesus promised his followers power from on high. Walk through the promise, the waiting and the dramatic day of Pentecost in Acts 1–2, and see how the Spirit formed a praying, generous, joyful church — and still does today.
