Speaker: Rev. Terry Clark
Sermon: Gift of the Spirit
Series Name: Fruit-full: Living A Spirit-Filled Life
Series Description:
In this sermon series, we will examine the fruits of the Spirit. Many of us are engaged in trying to grow as individuals. We’re aware of our flaws and wish we could be different. “I am working on trying to be more patient.” And then there is the opposite. Many people aren’t engaged in trying to grow at all. “If this is how God made me, why should I try to change?”
Neither of these approaches actually captures what scripture teaches about how virtues are developed. This series will explore the idea that those virtues we wish we had are not some things we “will” into existence nor are they inborn. So the question is: How do these fruits become part of us? If it isn’t a matter of will, what is it a matter of?
