Send us your thoughts through Fan MailWhat does it really mean to be patient?In this episode of Healthy & Redeemed, we continue our Fruit of the Spirit series by exploring forbearance, often translated as patience. This kind of patience is more than simply waiting—it is a steady, Spirit-produced ability to remain slow to anger, respond with restraint, and bear with others even in difficult moments.We will look at the biblical meaning of patience and explore the difference between self-produced patience and the kind of forbearance that only the Holy Spirit can form in us.Patience is not something you have to force—it is something God grows in you.Podcast Series Introduction:Fruit of the Spirit | What is it?Support the showGet Healey's Books:  Changing Your Feelings - A Workbook for Anxiety and Worry  The Red Ball, A Story of Friendship and ForgivenessThe Companion Activity Book for The Red BallThe Worried Little Goat_______________________________For free Mental Health Resources:  Create an account on my website for unlimited resource access!  Click here to support the show*This podcast is for informational and educational purposes only.  I approach scripture through the lens of a Christian licensed counselor, combining biblical insight with clinical understanding of emotional health.  It does not constitute professional advice or is intended to diagnose/treat any disorders and does not constitute a client-therapist relationship.   *Any links to specific resources or content (outside of my own) are not an endorsement of the entire website, author, organization, etc.  Their views may not represent my own.Healthy & Redeemed is a Christian mental health podcast blending Scripture, psychology, and coping skills.
