As we witness violence, racism, and bigotry around the world, we hear Biblical verses and Biblical imagery among opposing groups. In our churches, we talk about the Bible’s importance for our everyday life and have people “turn in your Bibles,” or even stand at the reading of the Bible. We mention the Father’s name and Jesus’s name. We sing songs to the Father and the Son. But how do we honor the Holy Spirit and acknowledge him in our services? Many evangelical churches leave the Holy Spirit out of their weekly services. It is, however, His work that we desperately need today and have always needed.
