1 Corinthians 11:17-34

Any meal will be enhanced by the addition of fresh fruit, as an appetizer or dessert. Well, the Lord has given His people the Lord's Supper as a covenant meal of fellowship that we are to participate in together on a regular basis – and nothing enhances this special meal more than when we manifest the fruit of the Holy Spirit in our lives every day.

Galatians 5:22-26

Do you experience peace in your life? Many people might answer this question on the basis of whether or not they are facing trials or difficulties at that particular time. But as Jay Oswald Sanders said, “Peace is not the absence of trouble – it is the presence of God.” Genuine peace with God enables us to experience His comfort and presence regardless of our circumstances.

Luke 16

You may remember the popular bumper sticker that said, “He who dies with the most toys wins.” Join Dr. Harry Reeder on InPerspective as he examines Jesus' story about a selfish rich man who lived by this motto – with eternally disastrous consequences.

Galatians 5:22-26

Saint Augustine wrote, "O Lord, Thou hast made us for thyself, and our souls are restless until they find their rest in thee." But sin has alienated us from God, driven a wedge of enmity between sinful mankind and a holy God, and plunged the human race into turmoil and despair. What has God done to restore genuine peace between Himself and fallen humanity?

Galatians 5:22-26

Jesus told His disciples, "I have spoken these things to you, so that My joy may be in you, and your joy may be complete." Joy is an element of the fruit of the Holy Spirit – but authentic biblical joy seems to elude countless Christians. Are you making the choice to pursue and experience genuine biblical joy in your life – or are you sadly neglecting this important choice?

Galatians 5:22-26

You probably know the hymn set to the tune of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony: "Joyful, Joyful, We Adore Thee." But sadly, many Christians do not experience joy in their relationship with the Lord. They may see God as stern and severe, and as a result, joy is a neglected choice in many believers' lives. How can we experience the spiritual fruit of Christian joy in our lives?

Galatians 5:16-26

You may remember the old television comedy show "Love, American Style" – but more than anything else, our world needs "Love, CHRISTIAN Style." This kind of love, however, is not something we can simply muster up from deep within ourselves – it is a supernatural love that can only be supernaturally produced by the presence of the Holy Spirit in the life of the believer.

Galatians 5:16-26

Have you ever taken a bite of rotten fruit by mistake? It might even look fine on the outside, but it tastes so repulsive that you have to spit it out. Well, there are many rotten fruits of the flesh that are detestable to the Lord, and God's Word sets them in sharp contrast to the pleasing and delightful fruit of the Holy Spirit.

John 11

Psalm 23 says, "Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for You are with me." Join Dr. Harry Reeder on InPerspective as he shows how YOU can be able to walk through the valley of the shadow of death one day with peace and confidence in the Lord.

Galatians 5:16-26

A few apples in a bowl doesn't make a fruit salad; you need to add several other kinds like peaches, strawberries, bananas, grapes, and cantaloupe. The fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control, and God wants to see the full range of these qualities manifested in our lives.
