Occasionally at Trinity, we run a series of Sunday Seminars as an opportunity to learn more about the Bible’s teaching and the history of the Christian church. In this series, Phil Andrews will be introducing us to the ways in which the Church developed in the first five centuries.

The final virtue listed by the Apostle Paul as the fruit of the Spirit is ‘self-control.’ What does Paul have in mind with this? Why do we lack self-control? And where can we find it and grow in it? In this sermon we consider these questions.

In the famous list of virtues that the Apostle Paul lists as “the fruit of the Spirit” in Galatians 5:22-23, the virtue of ‘gentleness’ appears. What is gentleness? Where do we find it? And how do we grow in it? In this sermon we consider these questions.

Continuing in our sermon series on the fruit of the Spirit, next we consider what the Apostle Paul means when he refers to ‘faithfulness’ characterising the person who becomes a Christian.

In the famous list of characteristics that the Apostle Paul refers to as ‘the fruit of the Spirit,’ ‘goodness’ is sixth and next in our series. What does it mean to refer to God as ‘good?’ And what difference does the fact that God is good make to our lives?

In Luke 5:1-11 Jesus commissions Simon Peter. What does this teach us about our ‘mission’ as Christians?

In the famous list of virtues that the Apostle Paul referred to as the fruit of the Spirit, the virtue of kindness appears fifth in the list. What is kindness? Where do we find it? And how do we then show it? In this sermon we consider these questions.

In the famous list he refers to as the fruit of the Spirit, the Apostle Paul lists patience the fourth virtue. We’re often aware of our lack of patience, but why is patience so valuable? And how can we become more patient? In this sermon we consider these questions.

Third in what the Apostle Paul famously lists as the fruit of the Spirit in Galatians 5:22-23 is ‘peace.’ What does the Bible teach about peace, how do we get it, and what difference does it make in our lives?

Second in the famous list of virtues that the apostle Paul famously refers to as the fruit of the Spirit in Galatians 5:22-23 is ‘joy.’ What is joy? Why is it often the case that there is an absence of joy in our lives, and how can we experience it?
