Fear is no match for the Holy Spirit. 🔥

"Can we make the choice, on this Pentecost Sunday, to open our hearts to the Spirit who has come a'knockin', to see that our fear is no match for what we can do when we are empowered by her animating force? Lift the window shades. Throw open the door. The world needs you, and the Spirit will show you the way."

Martha Ligas reaches for Pentecost Sunday! Find her full video and text on the CWP website - link in the bio.

Preaching for Pentecost, Martha Ligas offers a reflection on overcoming fear and complacency through openness to the Holy Spirit:

"The Spirit is ready to bust down the door. She is actively waiting to animate our very selves, to set our hearts on fire, to lead us through a thrown open door into a world that desperately needs our ministries."

Martha Ligas (she/her) serves as the Pastoral Minister at the The Community of Saint Peter in Cleveland, Ohio, and Program Associate at FutureChurch . Both spaces give her room to ride the coattails of the Spirit by reimagining what it means to create faith communities of belonging. She will continue pursuing a Doctor of Ministry at Catholic Theological Union this fall. Martha lives in Cleveland, OH with her partner and their pets.
