Growing The Fruit: Goodness

August 16, 2026

Scripture: Galatians 6:7-10

After a couple weeks on other topics in worship we come back to Growing the Fruit this morning. We focus on the aspect of the Fruit of the Spirit that is goodness. How is this aspect of the Spirit growing in each of us? What does it look like to experience goodness from another? These are the types of questions that the descriptions of the Fruit of the Spirit invite us to ask. Galatians 6:7-10 will help guide our hearts as we come to the LORD in worship today.

God’s Calling

August 9, 2026

Scripture: Romans 12:4-8

Summer offers us opportunities that we don’t always have, and even as we take advantage of those things it is always good to gather with others and praise the Lord! While it is good to connect with a congregation that helps us to worship God in a way that is meaningful to us, may we never forget that God the Father is the object of our worship and not our own desires. Let us join with King David in the words of Psalm 122 when he said, “I rejoiced with those who said to me, “Let us go to the house of the LORD.”

Growing The Fruit: Love Boldly!

August 2, 2026

Scripture: Psalm 111:1-10; Matthew 22:34-40

Today is a special day that brings together brothers and sisters in Christ from all over the area as five United Methodist congregations united in worship to God. We have adjusted the potluck picnic plans to be indoors in the Family Life Center due to the rain in the forecast. But there will still be a bounce house and cotton candy machine! Matthew 22:34-40 will help guide our hearts in worship as we consider God’s call to Love Boldly. Communion will be a part of us joining in unity to praise.

Growing The Fruit: Kindness

July 26, 2026

Scripture: Micah 6:8

It seems like the world has gotten meaner in recent years. Maybe it’s always been this rough, but the celebration of the “enemies” defeat and a general support for meanness if the mean person supports our perspective sure does seem to be on rise. Various scriptures point out God’s character as something that not only do we benefit from, but as something we should grow to emulate. This is what the Fruit of the Sprit is about, it’s what other lists in the New Testament remind us of. God is compassionate, kind, humble. We are blessed by this, but it is also supposed to change us as we experience these aspects of God. Today we seek to grow the fruit of kindness as we look to the Fruit of the Spirit, Micah 6:8 will help guide our hearts in worship.
