The Spirit of Renewal

The people of God in Ezekiel's time had experienced the annihilation of everything that identified them: their land, their community, and their faith. Their question would have been whether God had forgotten them or not. And if he had remembered them, could he bring life back to dead realities? On this Pentecostal Sunday, we look at Ezekiel's vision of the valley of Dry bones, and find encouragement in a God whose Spirit renews experiences that have long been forgotten.
