  • Bible Quest: Pentecost

    We reach the next stage in our Bible Quest adventure. Jesus had died, risen again, and ascended to heaven. The time for the festival of Pentecost was here and Jesus’ disciples were gathered together in Jerusalem. There were thousands of other people there too.

    Before Jesus returned to heaven, he promised his followers that they would receive ‘the helper.’ This was someone who God would send to support them. They had to wait in Jerusalem for this to happen.

    This is what they were doing when Pentecost occurred, waiting for the helper Jesus had promised. The helper was the Holy Spirit who would give them the power to do the things God wanted them to do.

    This film retells the biblical account of what happened…
