Media

In a world that feels increasing unsettled and angry, t-shirts and social media posts encourage us all to “be kind” or “choose kindness.”  The Bible not only agrees with that message, but adds, “Be joyful, peaceful, patience, and self-controlled.”  However, God does not leave us with a simple command to achieve these near-impossible ideals, but rather gives us Jesus and sends us his Spirit.  The Trinity, working together in us, begins to change us from the inside out.  Or, as we sometimes say around church, “Jesus Roots Produce the Spirit’s Fruits.”
