In the final words of Jesus' farewell address in John 16, He is preparing His disciples for His departure. Not only that, He informs them of the hatred that will be expressed towards them because of Jesus. They will be removed from the Synagogue, imprisoned and even killed. Jesus has always been there to protect them. But He too will be departing. This leaves the disciples to fend for themselves - or does it? Jesus will send a Helper to guide them. Join us this Sunday online or in-person at 10:15am as we explore who this Helper is and what He does.
