Offshoot: Doubting Thomas and The Birth of the Church

Welcome to God Knows Where. I’m Brett Harris. In this space between the series we wrapped up last week and what’s ahead came the Sunday when we celebrate the birth of the Church: Pentecost, so I figured I’d share my take on Pentecost.

I’ve been thinking a lot lately about what this thing we call Church is all about, what it’s for, and what a gathered community is supposed help us do. You know? Easy questions with simple answers. More to come on all this in the weeks to come.

But for now, here’s my take on Pentecost as it relates to a different story of when the Holy Spirit arrives to the community of folks who followed Jesus after his death than the one we’re use to reading. Hope you enjoy today’s episode!
