Talking about the cross from a Pentecostal perspective.
 Here are a few resources that may help with my CCT Good Friday talk.
You can find my source for the statistics here.
I have been strongly influenced by recent thinking done by James K A Smith on Pentecostal Epistemology.
You can get his book here
or watch a lecture on the subject here.
My father's story can be found here and my mother's here.
The unedited script for my talk is here.
If you would like to pursue any of the ideas I have raised you should be able to comment below.

The opposite spirit
 This Sunday we were back to talking about the cross and made some small reference to spiritual warfare and the idea of ACTING IN THE OPPOSITE SPIRIT.
I first heard of this idea from Gerald Coates but I believe it might have developed in YWAM with Loren Cunningham, the founder.
Anyway, if you want to know more, here and here are two helpful articles which you can read at leisure.

Awesome cross of power
Its 10.20 on Saturday night. I've got tomorrow's talk as far as I can - just a case of sleeping on it and praying the detail through in the morning.
Here are the bits you might want to follow up the session.
Wordles are a neat way of summarising and analysing text. You can make your own at www.wordle.net
Colossians 2:13-15
1 Corinthians 15:50-57
Here's the song which tells it better than I ever could.
And if you want to see the longer version of the HBO clip of the Roman triumphal procession, including a gory reminder of what happens to defeated enemies...

Awesome cross of freedom and forgiveness
The base from which I am working totay is Ephesians 1:7
For by the blood of Christ we are set free, that is our sins are forgiven.
That says it all really but the other ideas come from Colossians 1:19b-23a and Galatians 6:1-5.
Here's the fantastic movie I am showing towards the end.

BITE SIZE ADVENT: Waiting
How are you doing with waiting? For answers to prayer? For prophecy to be fulfilled. That's just like Anna and Simeon in the Christmas story. They knew all about waiting. One of the angles on Advent is waiting for the thing God has promised to be revealed.
Advent. from Spirit Juice Studios on Vimeo.
The commentary with the video:
Waiting. It is not attractive word. It seems boring. What if… you were waiting for something that would change your life? How would you get ready for it? Would you make yourself busy, filling your life with noise and distraction? Rushing to get gratification. Would you spend all your time doing everything… but slowing down? NO?
Well this is what we do every year. Each year we have an opportunity, to dramatically change our life. But most of the time we miss it. We spend our time running around, trying to get everything done in time. When most of us forget, to get the most important thing ready…Our Heart.
This is what Advent is all about. Slowing Down and Waiting. To get our Heart ready... To bring Jesus into our life… A bit more fully, than before
Advent. slow down. take time. open up.
