About this episode
The fruit of the Spirit is kindness, goodness...gentleness. The way of the flesh leads to nothing good. But sometimes we get glimpses of an alterate universe--a different way of being. A life where things like kindness, goodness, and gentleness bloom. This is life in the Spirit. This is the kingdom of God.
The sermon today is titled "Kind, Good, & Gentle." It is the fifth installment in our "Fruit of the Spirit" Series. The Scripture reading is from Galatians 5:22. Originally preached at the West Side Church of Christ (Searcy, AR) on August 7, 2022. These lessons fit under one of 5 broad categories: Begin, Discover, Grow, Learn, and Serve. This sermon is filed under Grow: Spiritual Formation.
