Episode 375: God’s Antidote to Gloom and Doom
Episode description
In a world filled with anxiety, fear, and nonstop bad news, many of us are tempted to cope through “doom spending”—buying things we don’t need just to feel something solid in an uncertain world.
But on Pentecost, God gave us something far more powerful than retail therapy: the gift of the Holy Spirit.
In this message, Pastor Mark Reynolds explores how the Spirit meets us in our fear, leads us with peace, and anchors us in a future filled with purpose—not panic. Through Scripture, stories, and practical insight, you’ll be reminded that:
- You are not alone in your struggles.
- You are a child of God and an heir with Christ.
- The Spirit is still being poured out—right here, right now.
- And in God’s family, no one is forgotten or left behind.
Whether you're feeling overwhelmed or simply need encouragement, this sermon will help you trade fear for faith and discover God's unshakable hope.
📖 Scripture: Acts 2:1–21; Romans 8
