Listen Later

Today, we're looking into the ongoing spiritual battle Christians face in navigating life with the 'flesh'. Pastor Colin elaborates on the powerful analogy of gardening to illustrate sin's persistent pull and how we can weaken its hold with determination and by living through the Spirit. Drawing on the wisdom of John Owen, a renowned Puritan writer, Colin helps us understand that while the struggle against the flesh is lifelong, nurturing the 'good fruit' of the Gospel is possible and rewarding.

In this message, aptly titled "The Gospel Bears Good Fruit," we delve into Galatians chapters 5 and 6 — exploring how to grow the character of Jesus within us.

This episode encourages us to sow to the Spirit, fostering growth and spiritual vitality.
