Abide - Part 12: “A Fruitful Life”

In this weeks sermon we take a look at each of the fruit listed in Galatians chapter 5. We discuss what the fruit look like in our life and how they all work together to form a fruitful and satisfying life in Jesus. Key Verses: Galatians 5:22-23. Several verses are used to get a feel for each fruit found in this passage. Refer to the sermon notes for full list of the verses discussed. Life Group Questions: Take some time to briefly review the sermon, and each of the fruit listed. Then discuss the questions below. 1) What stood out to you the most in the sermon this week? Was there a particular fruit that you learned something knew about, or saw in a new light this week? 2) Viewing this list as a description of God’s character – have you seen an example of Him working in your life in one of these ways? 3) Is there a fruit on this list that has been difficult to see God doing in your life, so it’s hard to believe God has that particular characteristic? 4) Now let’s consider the list as fruit God wants to produce in us. Can you share an example from your life where God has helped grow one of these fruit into your character, where previously you had really struggled? 5) Is there a particular fruit that stood out to you this week as an area of weakness that you would like to see grow in your life? What do you think you can do to grow in that area?
