Ever wondered what constitutes good character from a Christian perspective? Buckle up as Mark McCrary and I, Dr. Kenny Embry, unpack the good character track of the Balancing the Christian Life conference, using Galatians 5 as our guide. We delve into the nine aspects of the fruit of the spirit, spotlighting love as the cornerstone of Christianity. Prepare to have your perspectives challenged as we stress on love as an action, not an emotion, and the significance of epitomizing love, irrespective of our feelings.
In this enlightening conversation, Mark and I continue our exploration by untangling how God personifies goodness and its real-world applications. Expect to gain fresh insights as we dissect the nuances between kindness and niceness, and shed light on the importance of exemplifying faithfulness and gentleness. A deep dive into the phrase “the fruit of the Spirit” might change the way you perceive this biblical expression. We reflect on how these virtues naturally manifest when we submit to God and the Holy Spirit's counsel. Join us as we reiterate that in God's eyes, virtue and morality outweigh fame and recognition, and that goodness should be pursued even when unacknowledged.
