Am I Really In Control? | Deep Roots, Real Fruit - Self-control
About this episode
This episode explores the concept of self-control in the Christian life, emphasizing the importance of letting Jesus be in charge.
What controls you? In week 5 of Deep Roots, Real Fruit , we start looking at what spiritual growth actually produces in the life of a Christian - beginning with the real fruit of self-control . In Galatians 5:13-17 we see that Jesus came to free us from being controlled by our sinful desires so that we can live by the Spirit and choose to love God and others. But, what does that look like when you really want to keep scrolling? When you want to send the angry message? When you want to fit in with the crowd, or get your own way? In this episode, we explore what self-control looks like in te life of a Christian. Surprisingly, it's not so much about becoming really good at controlling yourself. Instead, It's about letting Jesus be in charge and discovering the freedom that only He brings.
