Bill Johnson - Hosting The Presence

Summary

The sermon explores the presence of God, linking the Hebrew word for presence, "faith," to the shining face of God. This concept is reinforced by the analogy of a caregiver's countenance activating joy in an infant, suggesting that the Father's joyful, accepting face brings us true joy. The practical takeaway emphasizes that God is in a good mood and offers the Holy Spirit as a down payment of His overwhelming presence.
