Free Fruit

In this powerful message, we're challenged to examine the fruit our lives are producing. Are we living in step with the Spirit, or falling back into old patterns? Galatians 5 contrasts the acts of the flesh with the fruit of the Spirit, reminding us that true freedom in Christ isn't about indulging our desires, but about transformation. We're called to honestly assess our lives - when things don't go our way, do we respond with patience and kindness, or with anger and jealousy? This introspection isn't about shame, but about growth. We're encouraged to surround ourselves with trusted people who can lovingly correct us, helping prune away what doesn't reflect Christ. Ultimately, this message challenges us to stay rooted in God's word and community, allowing the Holy Spirit to cultivate beautiful fruit in our lives that testifies to the freedom we've found in Jesus.
