They were crammed into an upper room in the Jerusalem area. Where, according to eyewitness testimony, they each individually were &...

This is the very last Vagabond Diaries left—at least for now. Beginning Aug 17, I have a three part dialogue with long time friend, Dr. Blane Despres on John Calvin’s remarkable and overlooked thoughts on the role of the Holy Spirit.  Beginning in September, I will look at the first five chapters of Acts, in a series called, The Church The Holy Spirit Built. Lots of fun.
