In this final stretch of our Fruit of the Spirit journey, we reach our ninth and final waypoint: Self-control. Just as every seasoned traveler relies on maps, markers, and careful navigation, our spiritual walk depends on this vital compass. In this episode, we explore how self-control guards our hearts, helping us avoid the detours of temptation and stay on course. We’ll unpack how it acts as a form of spiritual self-protection—empowering us to live with clarity, purpose, and strength. Join us as we chart out how to cultivate biblical self-control, develop habits that keep us moving in the right direction, and ultimately discover how this final quality of the Fruit of the Spirit fuels a more powerful, Spirit-led life.

In this episode of our Fruit of the Spirit series, we arrive at our eighth waypoint—Gentleness. Is gentleness meek and mild, or quiet strength rooted in trust?
