Dear Reader,
As Christians, we need to be growing.
So much of that growth happens in private—deep down where no one but God can see. But it doesn’t stay private—who we are on the inside always, sooner or later, makes its way to the surface.
Over the next 11 days, we’re going to talk about the fruit of the Spirit—a list of nine godly traits Paul highlighted in his letter to the New Testament church in Galatia.
These traits aren’t some arbitrary collection of nice-sounding words. Taken as a whole, they paint a picture of exactly what kind of growth God expects from His people—and, just as important, they give us a road map of how to pursue that growth in our own lives.
Every day of this Journey, you’re going to find three things:
You’ll see it at the end of the first day’s reading, but be sure to keep our Works of the Flesh vs. Fruit of the Spirit Word Study handy throughout this Journey—it’s a great way to keep track of what Greek words Paul used for the fruit of the Spirit (and what they mean).
Being a Christian means growing, and growing means developing the fruit of the Spirit. We hope this Journey will help you find the path and the motivation to do just that.
Are you ready to put what you’ve learned into practice?
Let’s begin!
All the best,
Your friends at Life Hope & Truth
