How often do you think about your own breath? You’re breathing right now, even if you’re not fully aware. For our bodies, breathing is necessary. And for our souls, the Holy Spirit is necessary.

Fire purifies and transforms. We can see this dynamic at work in both pottery making… and the Holy Spirit’s role in our lives. The Holy Spirit is often described and depicted as fire- and like fire, takes one thing and makes it another. In pottery making, clay is cast into fire, and transformed i...
