We’re back with Part 2 of our conversation on life in the Holy Spirit, and this one goes deeper. What does it actually mean to live by the Spirit, not just talk about Him? How do you know He’s at work in you? And what changes when you begin to see the Christian life less as rule-following and more as something happening inside you? Along the way, we’re joined by a guest who’s experienced years of one-on-one discipleship, giving us a real-life picture of how the Spirit works through people over time—not just in theory, but in lived experience.
