Ep.103 - God's Special Agent: The Holy Spirit - Building a Better Character

Theology for the Curious

What do we mean by ‘fruit’ of the Spirit? How is the Spirit’s fruit any different to the better characteristics of people without faith? Is fruit the essential character God leaves us to get on with and develop, or does he engage in the overall process, and through His Spirit enable us to be more like Christ? Is fruit production a partnership between us and the Spirit? Why is that some fruit appears to wither and die whilst others blossom?

In this weeks episode Pete and the Curious team examine the place and importance of the Spirit’s fruit. By looking at each individually, they define how they are different to an unbeliever simply living a morally good life. Join the team s they continue with their series on the person and work of the Holy Spirit.
