Some goals are hard to attain. But some are so readily available to us and have the potential to change our lives significantly and bear fruit!

What fills your bucket? Entertainment, food, friends? Do they last? Happiness is temporary, but joy lasts. How do we distinguish between joy and happiness? Where does complete joy come from?

Who needs peace? It sometimes feels like life interrupts our peace all the time. What is stealing your peace? Peace isn’t the absence of something but the presence of Someone far greater. The fruits of the spirit are not a to-do list. They simply happen, when we stay connected to Jesus.

What do you gain from losing your patience? What can I do about the times when I lose my patience? What can I do to extend my fuse and cultivate patience?

Why do we struggle with kindness?

Appearance can be deceiving. When we meet people in real life, sometimes it can be difficult to figure out who is good to the core… Jesus is less concerned about our appearance than what is going on inside of us.

Faithfulness is not a tap that we turn on or off, depending on the situation. It’s a steady stream of devotion in both the small and the big things. Consistent and unwavering.

People mess up and get it wrong… how do we, as a community, approach people who have messed up? How does Jesus approach people who have been caught out?

Shift your mindset. Learn first-hand that the fruits of the Spirit are a result of Someone more powerful at work in your life - it’s not all you.
