In The Fellowship of the Ring, Frodo’s friend Sam stops as they’re leaving the Shire on their long journey, saying, “If I take one more step, it’ll be the farthest from home I’ve ever been.” Sam may have taken one step in that moment, but it would take countless more steps for him and Frodo to reach their destination. Pastor Jeff teaches today that the Holy Spirit’s transforming work doesn’t happen all at once. It takes thousands of tiny steps and lots of time to make you into a new creation.
