Nephi's struggle with the commandments and sin is relatable to all of us, but he finds hope in Christ. Despite his constant shortcomings, Nephi realizes that he can rely on Christ for support and strength. Like Nephi, we often feel that we're not meeting expectations, but Christ is always there to lift and support us as long as we trust in him.
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."
