Pentecost doesn't get even the tiniest fraction of the attention which the incarnation gets.
Every year Christians spend an entire month (at least) in recognition of the moment in time when God took on human flesh and entered into human history.
There are movies, songs, parties, food, decorations, and special traditions - all over the world!
But when it comes to recognizing the moment 33 years after that Babe was born, when the Holy Spirit entered into human history and ignited the ongoing Body of Christ, there's hardly a passing mention in most churches.
Why is that?
How does the coming of the Holy Spirit rank against the coming of the Son?
Was the Spirit's arrival in human history just not as important?
