What does true gentleness look like — not as weakness, but as strength under control?

In this week’s Cultivate series message, Pastor Tim Ghali, Interim Teaching & Discipleship Pastor, unpacks the story of Jesus and the Samaritan Woman (John 4:1–26) to show how God’s Spirit cultivates gentleness in us — especially in a world that rewards power, pride, and harshness.

Jesus’ gentle engagement with the woman at the well shows us how gentleness restores dignity, opens doors to transformation, and reflects the heart of God to those around us.

Key Themes:

Gentleness as a fruit of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22–23)

How Jesus models strength through compassion

Restoring others through Spirit-led humility

Living gently in a harsh and hurried world

💬 “Gentleness isn’t avoiding truth — it’s bringing truth in love.”
