Fruit of the Spirit – Patience

This morning Pastor David focuses on patience in our Cultivating the Fruit of the Spirit summer teaching series.

Scripture: Galatians 5:22-26

Discussion Topics:

1. Read Galatians 5:17 and discuss the internal battle we face when it comes to the flesh and Spirit. Why is it so hard to win the battle against our flesh?
2. The word “Patience” used in Galatians means to stand under trials, temptations, and tests. Would this be your definition of patience? What does this definition look like in everyday life and what are the benefits to you?
3. We see that King Saul (1 Samuel 13:5-12) did not have enough patience when facing the Philistines. What are a few ways that you lose your patience?
