June 21, 2020 by Brad Murphy

In today’s message, you will gain a deeper understanding of the third person of the trinity, the Holy Spirit. You will learn that He is given by the Father to help produce a crop of good fruit in your life. The Bible calls this the Fruit of the Spirit.

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law.
Galatians 5:22-23 (ESV)

The Spirit’s Fruit for Fatherhood| Sermon Outline

But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh. For the desires of the flesh are against the Spirit, and the desires of the Spirit are against the flesh, for these are opposed to each other, to keep you from doing the things you want to do. But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the law. Now the works of the flesh are evident: sexual immorality, impurity, sensuality, idolatry, sorcery, enmity, strife, jealousy, fits of anger, rivalries, dissensions, divisions, envy, drunkenness, orgies, and things like these. I warn you, as I warned you before, that those who do such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law. And those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.
Galatians 5:16-24

Infuse | Gentleness

October 21, 2013 by Brad Murphy

This sermon is part 8 of 9 in the Infuse | Galatians 5:22-24

We are compelled by God’s LOVE and the FREEDOM offered in Jesus to infuse our relationships with the mind of Christ. As the Spirit of God directs our life, we take on the CHARACTER of the Spirit. This Fall we will ask God to INFUSE in us the love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control of Christ through the Holy Spirit!

Galatians 5:22-24, Philippians 4:2-7, Matthew 18:15-35

Join-Up in Gentleness

Monty Roberts learned that the way to train a horse was through violence and dominance. As a boy he watched his dad tame many wild horses. But as Monty grew up he wondered if there wasn’t a better way. After years of observing horses in the wild, Monty developed a gentle method of taming called Join Up®. His process leads a horse to become a Willing Partner with its rider instead of fearful subject of their rider. Through his gentle and loving method many horse lovers have come to enjoy riding their Willing Partner better than any horse tamed another way.

A gentle answer turns away wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger.
– Proverbs 15:1

Throughout the Bible God reveals through His humility and gentleness the lesson that Monty learned isn’t just true of horses, but of people too. Saint Paul instructs the church to “Let your gentleness be known to all. The Lord is near.”

Through this lesson, Join-Up in Gentleness, we learn to allow the Spirit of God to infuse the character of Christ’s gentleness into our daily lives. Gentleness is an outer garment that believers wear in every relationship. It isn’t meant to be an inner garment that only those who are closest to us experience, it should be the first thing people experience when they meet us.

Let your Gentleness be known to all. The Lord is near.
– Colossians 3:12

September 29, 2013 | Kiel Alloway, Intern
Galatians 5:22-24, Genesis 37-50 (Summarized)

Waiting Patiently for the Fulfillment of the Promise

This week our Ministry Intern from Northwest University Southern Idaho, tackles the topic of patience. Kiel knows this fruit well, because of the personal journey to seeing God’s call fulfilled in his life. Hear his compelling story, and relate it to yours, through the story of the life of Joseph. Through this encouraging message you will learn how the Holy Spirit will help you to Wait Patiently for the Fulfillment of the Promise.

For you have need of endurance, so that when you have done the will of God you may receive what is promised.
– Hebrews 10:36 (ESV)

The Promise Given (Promise)
Waiting for the Promise (Patience)
The Promise Fulfilled (Praise)

Not only that, but we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, and hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.
– Romans 5:3-5 (ESV)

Infuse | Kindness

September 22, 2013 | Brad Murphy
Galatians 5:22-24, Luke 10:25-37

Kindness | Compassion in Action

This week Pastor Brad discusses the big idea, Kindness is Compassion in Action. Jesus Christ demonstrated his kindness toward us, not only with words and understanding, but in action. In the same way, we demonstrate kindness, because Christ’s Spirit in us causes us to bear this fruit.

Kindness is willing to take compassionate action
Kindness is willing to take a risk
Kindness is willing to put other first
Kindness is willing to pay the price
Kindness is willing to finish what it starts
Kindness is willing to glorify God

On one occasion an expert in the law stood up to test Jesus. “Teacher,” he asked, “what must I do to inherit eternal life?”

“What is written in the Law?” he replied. “How do you read it?”

He answered, “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind’; and, ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’”

“You have answered correctly,” Jesus replied. “Do this and you will live.”
– Luke 10:25-28
