Be Renewed

Love. Joy. Peace. Patience. All of us desire to exhibit these qualities in our lives. But what does it mean to “live by the Spirit”? The fruit of the Spirit is the result of the inner workings of God, but it is also a product of our response and understanding. It comes from obedience as well as dependence.

In this studyguide, Stuart Briscoe invites you to study more deeply how believing and behaving affects one another. Using passages from both the Old and New Testament, Briscoe offers us a deeper understanding of the nine fruits of the Spirit in Galatians, giving us encouragement and insight into what it means to live as Christ did.

This review is from: The Fruit of the Spirit: Cultivating Christlike Character (Fisherman Bible Studyguides) (Paperback)

Our Sunday School is a group of young adults with children, and we looked for a study that would not be a huge commitment for the leader and would involve a lot of discussion. This book suits us very well.

Preparation time is 30 minutes or so per lesson, and the leader does not have to spend a lot of time preparing lessons or questions. In fact, we have started rotating leadership responsibilities. It is hard to get through a chapter each week, since we have lots of discussion. However, each lesson is usually in two or three parts, so they lend themselves to serial presentation.

We are very satisfied and will order from this series again!
