December 31, 2018 • Pastor Lloyd Pulley • 1 Corinthians 12:1–12
There are those who say you aren’t actually saved unless you display gifts like speaking in tongues and prophecies. There are some who even have displayed things like laughter and barking like a dog, and called them spiritual gifts. So what’s the truth? Well, when you mention the word “truth”, the very first place to go is God’s word!

The Gifts of the Holy Spirit - Part 2A
December 28, 2018 • Pastor Lloyd Pulley • 1 Corinthians 12:1–12
Over the last two programs we looked at what Lloyd called the ‘revelation gifts’. Today we’ll begin a look at the ‘power gifts’. First up is faith. Many people have a hard time understanding how faith can be a spiritual gift, and yet at the same time be the one ingredient in our relationship with Jesus Christ that saves us from our sins.
The Gifts of the Holy Spirit - Part 1B
December 27, 2018 • Pastor Lloyd Pulley • 1 Corinthians 12
We’ll go back to our series on spiritual gifts today, as we look at the gifts described in First Corinthians chapter twelve. If you received a blender as a Christmas gift a couple of days ago, and then tried to mow your lawn with it, you’d have a very frustrating experience, right? I say that in order to remind you that spiritual gifts are given by God to be used for His glory - and we need to know how to use them correctly.
The Gifts of the Holy Spirit - Part 1A
December 26, 2018 • Pastor Lloyd Pulley • 1 Corinthians 12
How many gifts of the Spirit are there? Opinions are varied, as you might guess. There are some that are well known, such as tongues, prophecy, and the like. But there are many others that you might not have considered, and that you might actually possess! Lloyd will help us identify those gifts over the next several broadcasts, as we open our Bibles to First Corinthians chapter twelve.
No Room in the Inn - Part 2
December 25, 2018 • Pastor Lloyd Pulley • Luke 2:1–21
Welcome to Bridging the Gap with Pastor Lloyd Pulley. I’m sure you’ve noticed the way Christmas has changed over the past several decades. Well, maybe Christmas hasn’t changed, but the way it’s perceived sure has. Instead of celebrating the wonderful gift of a savior born in a manger, we celebrate an orgy of gift giving, and scrambling to be the first in line on December 26th to return the gifts we don’t want. What happened?
No Room in the Inn - Part 1
December 24, 2018 • Pastor Lloyd Pulley • Luke 2:1–21
Today we’ll begin a message for the Christmas season. We’ll look at the woman at the center of all the miraculous events we see chronicled in the story of the Lord’s birth - Mary. It’s the most important birth in human history, and it’s important that we understand why He was born, and why He was born WHEN He was born, and where He was born. Our message is titled “No Room At The Inn”, and our scripture reference is Luke chapter two.
No Room In The Inn
December 23, 2018 • Pastor Lloyd Pulley • Luke 2:1–21
No Room in the Inn – First-century Bethlehem had no room for Jesus at His first coming.
Is there room for Him in your life?
This Christmas, come and reflect with us on Jesus’ place in your life as we celebrate His birth.

The Work of the Holy and Spirit Upon Us - Part 2
December 21, 2018 • Pastor Lloyd Pulley • Acts 1:8
Today, we’ll turn our attention to the book of Acts, chapter two, and the descending of the Holy Spirit. This one of the landmark events in the entire bible, when the Lord’s promise of a helper was fulfilled. The mighty rushing wind we see appear in this text is still around today.
The Work of the Holy and Spirit Upon Us - Part 1
December 20, 2018 • Pastor Lloyd Pulley • Acts 1:8
Today we take a look at the works of the Holy Spirit. What does He do in the life of a Christian? Jesus answered this question in John fourteen, when His disciples were wondering what would happen to them after the crucifixion and resurrection. A helper was on the way! And He is the same helper that is there for us today.
The Person of the Holy and Spirit - Part 2
December 19, 2018 • Pastor Lloyd Pulley
Today on Bridging the Gap, Pastor Lloyd Pulley continues his new series on the Holy Spirit with a look at the familiar story of Ananias and his wife Sapphira. In Acts chapter five, Ananias and Sapphira sell some property just to get some accolades. What they receive is the Judgment of God.

December 18, 2018 • Pastor Lloyd Pulley
If you are a Christian, you have a person in your life called The Holy Spirit. That’s right – He is a person. A lot of people have a difficult time understanding that. This series is designed to answer the questions we have all asked about the person of the Holy Spirit.
Led by the Holy Spirit - Part 2
December 17, 2018 • Pastor Lloyd Pulley • Romans 8:14, Psalm 32:8, John 16:13
For the last several broadcasts, we’ve been considering the power of the Holy Spirit, and His role in our lives as Christians. Lloyd will share some more truths today concerning the gifts of the Holy Spirit. There are those who say you’re not really a saved Christian unless you display these gifts. There are those who say the gifts of the Spirit are not even relevant anymore. Who’s right?
