Episode notes

The fruits of the spirit are not only helpful in making decisions and guiding our actions, but they also bring peace and strengthen us. While all the fruits are important, peace is especially valuable as it gives us confidence and reassurance that we're on the right path. On the other hand, impatience often means we're lacking the spirit and the ability to endure. These fruits are not only strengths for us, but they also indicate that following the path of Christ is the right way. It's positive to see that the outcomes of love and joy are manifested in these fruits.

We discuss the fruits of the Spirit in our discussion with Dr. Jared Ludlow as he examines how the Saints in Galatia were commanded to become "a new creature in Christ."
