Ep. 6 - The Fruit of the Spirit: Patience
Manage episode 380357728 series 3517347
Patience, also translated as long-suffering, is the fourth fruit listed in the Fruit of the Spirit. Take a listen as Justin, Ernest, and Braden break down the meaning of the word used in Scripture. The guys go in-depth on examples of patience seen through faithful believers in the lives of Job, Noah, and Abraham. We also see how patient God has been with people's sins in order to fulfill His plan and give people a chance to repent. Patience is not just gritting your teeth and getting through it, rather it is an acceptance and delight in the path God has laid for you. Find out how you can cultivate patience in your life with this fruitful episode (no pun intended).
