Connecting to God and to Jesus through the Holy Spirit requires an understanding of what the Holy Trinity is… 

Pastor Mike Ash from Grace Family Church visits the Strong By Design podcast to talk with co-host Jared Haley about his encounters with the Holy Spirit and relationship to God. 

Our Christian faith is based on God as the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.  

Understanding that relationship and how they are different and one is paramount. This conversation is based on a sermon Jared heard at church and was moved to have Pastor Mike on the show to share with our listeners. 

“People asked, ‘How do you hear from the Holy Spirit?’ For me, the number 1 way is through fasting – what happens is you starve the flesh to feed the spirit… In those moments, I feel that it charges my relationship with God and the Holy Spirit, and in those moments, He speaks to me.” – Pastor Mike Ash
