The Fruit of the Spirit

Galatians 5 lists nine qualities the Holy Spirit grows in us. One lesson each, with simple steps for letting that fruit show at home, at work and in the church.

Paul wrote Galatians to churches tempted to add law-keeping to faith in Christ. In chapter 5 he shows that freedom in Christ leads to a Spirit-led life, not license.
