Growing The Fruit: Self-Control

July 5, 2026

Scripture: John 4:7-15, 28-34

This Sunday, we will meet a woman who walked to a well under the weight of shame, fear, and grief—thinking she was simply drawing water, when in truth she was dying of thirst beside the very Source of life. She had learned how to survive by hiding, but Jesus came to offer more than survival. He offered living water: the gift of His Spirit, new life, and freedom from everything that had been controlling her. Her empty jar, her hidden shame, and her lonely walk became an invitation to us all: stop dragging yourself back to wells that cannot satisfy, and come drink deeply from the living water Jesus offers.

Growing The Fruit: Joy

June 28, 2026

Scripture: James 1:2-4

Each aspect of the Fruit of the Spirit reveals something to us about who God is and what Jesus’ heart for us is. The fact that joy is talked about so much in scripture tells us about God’s joyousness, and how the Father invites us to interact with the world. Life can be difficult, the problems of our lives and the brokenness of the world are very serious. Yet, we should be encouraged that scripture calls us to joy in ways that account for the hardships we encounter. The Bible does not promise we will be excused from weeping, but that joy will find us as that season ends.

Growing The Fruit: Love

June 21, 2026

Scripture: 1 John 4:7-12

When the Holy Spirit is welcomed into a person’s heart things will change for the better. The presence and work of the Spirit, with a person who cooperates motivated out of love for the LORD is someone that you can spot for the ways that certain attributes are clear and growing. Love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self control are the list the Apostle Paul gives about a life with such evidence. Today we start a series on Growing the Fruit and will consider how love is the foundation for all that God is doing in our lives. 1 John 4:7-12 will be among the scriptures leading our hearts to worship today.
