88. The Fruit of the Spirit | Gentleness: Strength That Doesn't Need to Prove Itself

from Healthy & Redeemed - Helping Christians Grow in Mental and Spiritual Health · host Healey Ikerd, LPC, LMFT

Send us your thoughts through Fan Mail In this episode of the Healthy & Redeemed Podcast, we explore the biblical meaning of gentleness as part of the Fruit of the Spirit. Together we'll look at what Scripture teaches about this often-misunderstood quality and why gentleness is actually a picture of strength surrendered to God's control. We'll also discuss how gentleness affects our relationships, emotional health, and daily walk with Christ, along with practical ways to participate with the Holy Spirit as He develops this fruit in our lives. If you've ever struggled with reacting too quickly, defending yourself, or speaking truth with grace, this episode is for you.
