Many Christians have questions about the baptism of the Holy Spirit.

What is it? Is it for believers today? Does it always happen the same way? How do you know if you’ve received it? And what role does speaking in tongues play in the experience?

👉 Watch more stories of people encountering God in extraordinary ways here:

In this conversation, Jeff and Adrienne Rogers share two remarkably different experiences with the baptism of the Holy Spirit. Adrienne was raised in a Lutheran church and believed she already had everything she needed spiritually. Jeff spent years pursuing a deeper experience with God and wrestling through questions of faith, scripture, and the work of the Holy Spirit.

What followed challenged many of their assumptions and ultimately transformed the course of their lives.

Rather than presenting a formula, their stories reveal something many Christians never realize: God does not always work the same way in every person. The baptism of the Holy Spirit can look very different from one believer to another while producing the same hunger for God, intimacy with Him, and desire to walk in His power.

In this episode, we discuss:
⇨ The baptism of the Holy Spirit
⇨ Speaking in tongues and prayer language
⇨ Whether spiritual gifts are still active today
⇨ Pentecost and Acts 2
⇨ Faith, expectation, and receiving from God
⇨ Hearing God’s voice
⇨ Miracles and the power of prayer
⇨ Walking in the fullness of what God has for believers

Whether you have experienced the baptism of the Holy Spirit yourself, are seeking it, are skeptical of it, or simply want to understand what the Bible teaches, this conversation offers a thoughtful and honest look at a subject that has shaped the lives of Christians for generations.
