Want to dig deeper? Walk through these questions below individually or with a group!

· Read John 16:7. Jesus tells the disciples that it is an advantage to them that he goes away. How is it an advantage to them? What happens because of Jesus going away?

· Read John 14:16-17. The Greek word used to describe the Holy Spirit is “Parakletos,” which means Helper, Intercessor, Counselor, Advocate, or Comforter. Have you ever asked God for help, comfort, and counsel? Tell about a time you felt like God the Holy Spirit helped you, comforted you, or gave you counsel.

· Read John 16:8-11. What does Jesus tell his disciples about the job that the Holy Spirit will do in the world?

· Read John 16:13- 15. What does Jesus tell his disciples about the work that the Holy Spirit will do in their lives?

· How has the Holy Spirit helped you in your life? How has he guided you and helped you glorify Jesus?

· In your life, have you experienced the conviction of the Holy Spirit? Did this happen before you were a Christian, after becoming a Christian, or both? What are some ways you can be reminded daily that the Holy Spirit is always available to you?
