2 Thirteenth Sunday After Pentecost August 19, 2018 Ephesians You Are What You Drink John Wesley. A Plain Account of Christian Perfection God hardly gives His Spirit even to those whom He has established in grace, if they do not pray for it on all occasions, not only once, but many times. N.T. Wright. Paul for Everyone: The Prison Letters If you don t want your mind and heart to go wandering off into the realms of darkness, one of the best ways is to keep them well stocked with wise and thankful themes, so that words of comfort, guidance and good judgment come bubbling up unbidden from the memory and subconscious. L. Gregory Jones. Faith Matters in The Christian Century The writer suggests that we all want to be lifted out of ourselves, beyond ourselves. Drunkenness does this in ways that diminish and destroy; becoming faithfully intoxicated with the Holy Spirit draws people together into life-giving praise.
