In this episode, I clear up the misconceptions about the Holy Spirit being just some ethereal or vague force. Instead, I explore the Holy Spirit as a concrete, persevering presence that guides us to Christ and gives us assurance of salvation. Using a childhood cakewalk illustration and a map metaphor, I unpack how the Spirit works in our faith journeys, even amidst doubts and deconstruction. Join the conversation in the comments!
