Podcasts about fruitology

In this final message of our Fruitology series, Ps Dan unpacks the often-overlooked yet powerful fruits of gentleness and self-control.What does it mean to live with strength under control? How do we grow in self-discipline without striving in our own strength? Discover how these fruits of the Spirit are not about perfection, but about proximity to Jesus. As we stay connected to the Vine, the Spirit produces fruit in us that transforms our lives and witnesses to the world around us.

The powerful examples from Hebrews 11, often called the 'hall of faith,' show us that faithfulness isn't just about belief, but about action. From Noah building an ark before rain fell, to Abraham leaving his homeland on God's promise, we see that true faithfulness often requires us to step out in obedience, even when it doesn't make sense. This challenges us to examine our own lives - are we willing to trust God's promises even when we can't see the immediate results? The story of Joshua and the walls of Jericho further illustrates this, reminding us that God's ways often defy human logic, but yield miraculous results when we faithfully follow. As we navigate our own challenges, let's remember that our faithfulness is fueled by God's strength, not our own efforts. In a world of constant change, we're called to courageously stand on the unchangeable truth of God's word, even when it goes against cultural trends. This steadfast commitment to God's truth, coupled with faithful stewardship of our time, talents, and resources, allows us to build for God's eternal kingdom rather than temporary earthly gains.

This isn't just about being nice; it's about reflecting God's righteousness in our lives. We're reminded that true goodness flows from God, who alone is perfectly good. Like the moon reflecting the sun's light, we're called to reflect God's goodness in our world. The story of Joseph forgiving his brothers exemplifies this transformative power of goodness. As we seek first God's kingdom and righteousness, we're challenged to let His goodness overflow from our lives, blessing others in both big and small ways. This journey of goodness is ultimately about surrender, allowing God to convict, transform, and use us as channels of His blessing to the world around us.

The message emphasizes that kindness isn't just being nice—it's an active reflection of God's goodness and generosity. We're reminded of Romans 2:4, which tells us that God's kindness leads us to repentance. This transformative kindness should flow through us, making us instruments of God's love in the world. The feeding of the 5,000 is highlighted as an example of how even small acts of kindness, like the boy's offering of loaves and fish, can be multiplied by God for tremendous impact. We're encouraged to see opportunities for kindness everywhere, recognizing that each act, no matter how small, can make a significant difference. As we cultivate kindness, we become living testimonies of God's character, shining His light in a world desperately in need of His love.

Drawing from Galatians 5:22-23, we learn that patience is part of the Holy Spirit's transformative work in our lives. This message challenges us to shift our perspective from earthly impatience to heavenly patience. We're encouraged to ask ourselves: Are our responses rooted in fear or love? Are we centered on ourselves or on God? By turning to God's promises, engaging in prayer, and leaning into the power of sanctification, we can cultivate patience that reflects Christ's character. This journey of patience isn't just about personal growth; it's about allowing God's love to flow through us to others, embodying the beautiful description of love in 1 Corinthians 13. As we embrace this process, we're invited to experience a deeper, more joyful walk with God, even amidst life's trials.

Discover more and connect with Heart Church https://bio.site/weareheartchurchIn our exploration of peace as a fruit of the Spirit, we discover that true peace is not the absence of storms, but the presence of Christ in the midst of them. The story of Jesus calming the storm in Mark 4 reminds us that even when life's waves crash around us, we can find peace in knowing that God is in control. This peace transcends our circumstances and guards our hearts and minds. We're challenged to shift our focus from worldly sources of comfort to the Prince of Peace Himself. By rejoicing in the Lord, practicing gratitude, bringing our anxieties to God in prayer, and fixing our thoughts on what is pure and praiseworthy, we open ourselves to experiencing a peace that surpasses all understanding. As we navigate life's challenges, let's remember that knowing God means knowing peace, and that this divine peace is available to us even in our most turbulent moments.

In our exploration of joy as a fruit of the Spirit, we've uncovered a profound truth: joy is not mere happiness, but a divine gift rooted in our relationship with God. Unlike fleeting emotions, true joy persists even in life's darkest moments. We've seen this exemplified in Paul and Silas, who sang hymns while imprisoned, demonstrating that joy can flourish even in adversity. Their story reminds us that our joy in Christ can be a powerful testimony to the world, inviting others to experience God's transformative love. As we navigate life's challenges, let's remember that 'the joy of the Lord is our strength' (Nehemiah 8:10). This joy isn't based on circumstances but on an unshakeable hope in Christ, enabling us to consider even our trials as opportunities for growth and maturity in faith.

Love is the foundation of the Christian life, reflecting God's nature and serving as the root of all other virtues. This message emphasizes God's sacrificial love for us, His command for us to love others, and how the Holy Spirit empowers us to love as Christ loves. We'll explore how love transforms our relationships and how, as followers of Jesus, we are called to demonstrate unconditional love to all people.Discover more and connect with Heart Church https://bio.site/weareheartchurch

Do you feel like your life is out of control? Like you can barely control yourself let alone your circumstances. While we all want to say that we are patient, kind, selfless people, our lack of self control is often what is displayed. It’s displayed in our diets, in our spending, and in our decisions that we make. God knew that self control would be an area where we would struggle. It’s a war between what our physical bodies want and what our mind and hearts are telling us we should want. Pastor Brian wraps up our series Fruitology by showing us what Biblical self control looks like and gives us 3 simple ways that we can start to strengthen our self control muscle.

Over the course of this past week, our headlines have all been centered around the issues of hatred and racism that we see happening in our country. As tensions rise on both sides of this issue, it leaves many of us wondering, “how can I personally help make a change?” What can be done to fix this brokenness and sin? And what role do I need to play in fixing this problem? In this week’s message, Pastor Sean takes the time to address the issue of racism and hatred in our country and shows that the sinfulness of racism is no where supported by what the Bible teaches. But furthermore, he demonstrates from the Bible how those who follow Jesus need to respond to the hatred, ignorance, and racism in order to make a difference.

Our culture wants everything now. Wanna buy something online? Use Amazon Prime and get it in 2 days. Want to watch a specific show? Just stream it? Don’t like your phone? I’m sure your provider has a deal where you can get the newest and best one. As we continue our series, Fruitology, Pastor Taylor talks about the main 2 reasons why we don’t have patience and then shows us from the Bible why we can have patience in our lives even when it’s hard.

We use the word love very interchangeably. We love our family. We love our kids. We love our car. We love our sports teams. We love food. But we don’t love all those things the same way. We think we’ve found real love, but then that feeling goes away. As Pastor Ken start the first week of this series, we see that God wants our lives to produce true love. Pastor Ken talks about the 4 types of the love God has for us which He wants us to display and also shares 3 keys to cultivate your heart so that this kind of true love can shine through.

Sam and Josh discuss catfishing, fruit bigotry and Josh's relationship (again).
