THE FINAL EPISODE IN OUR FRUIT OF THE SPIRIT SERIES! We made it!! In this episode, we explore self-control as a fruit of the Spirit from Galatians 5:22–23. Self-control isn’t simply about trying harder or suppressing our desires—it’s about allowing the Holy Spirit to shape our thoughts, choices, words, emotions, and actions.
