In this series we are looking carefully at Galatians 5:22-23, where the apostle Paul lists the fruit of the Spirit. This fruit is the product of the Holy Spirit dwelling in us. We talk about the world’s definition of each and contrast it with the biblical definition. We also talk about practical application in our everyday lives.

Jesus said ‘a tree is known by its fruit.’ (Luke 6:43-45) We want to be fruit bearing women!
