Walk by the Spirit: A 9-Week Study on the Fruit of the Spirit
In a world that often prizes self-effort and quick results, the Bible calls believers to a different way: a life of dependence on the Spirit of God. The Fruit of the Spirit is a 9-week deep dive into the book of Galatians, where you'll explore what it means to live a life marked not by striving, but by Spirit-empowered transformation.
Centering on Galatians 5, this study will guide you through Paul's teaching on the works of the flesh versus the fruit of the Spirit. Week by week, you’ll not only examine each virtue — love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control — but also trace their beautiful thread throughout all of Scripture.
Along the way, you’ll discover:
-
How the Holy Spirit works in the life of a believer to produce true, lasting change
-
Why sanctification is not self-improvement, but Spirit-dependence
-
How each fruit of the Spirit reveals the heart and character of Christ Himself
-
What it looks like to bear fruit in the ordinary, everyday moments of life
Each week includes in-depth study, reflection questions, and practical prompts to help you rely more fully on the Spirit’s power, not your own, for the fruitful life God calls His children to live.
Whether you are studying alone, gathering a small group, or walking through this with your church, The Fruit of the Spirit invites you to a life of flourishing — rooted not in your effort, but in God's faithful work within you.
