from Healthy & Redeemed - Helping Christians Grow in Mental and Spiritual Health · host Healey Ikerd, LPC, LMFT
Send us your thoughts through Fan Mail Have you ever wondered what it really means to be a "good person"? Or why doing the right thing can sometimes feel like such a struggle? In this episode of the Healthy & Redeemed Podcast, we continue our Fruit of the Spirit series by exploring what the Bible really means by goodness. We'll discover that biblical goodness is far more than outward behavior or good intentions. It is the Holy Spirit transforming our hearts to reflect God's character and actively seek the good of others. Together, we discover how Spirit-produced goodness differs from self-produced goodness, and explore what Scripture teaches about it. We also discuss how goodness affects our mental, emotional, and spiritual health and why walking in step with the Holy Spirit helps us reflect Christ more faithfully in everyday life. If you desire to grow spiritually, become emotionally healthier, and live in a way that honors God and helps others, this episode will encourage and equip you.
