Cultivating the Garden | Episode 2: Love— The Foundation

"Come talk to me girlie🗣️💖"Love is the first fruit of the Spirit—but have you ever stopped to ask why?Before we spend the next several weeks exploring joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control, we first have to understand the foundation they all grow from: love.In this episode, we walk through 1 Corinthians 13 and John 13:34–35 to discover what biblical love really looks like. Together, we’ll explore why love gives meaning to everything else we do, how Jesus modeled the standard of love, and why our love for others becomes evidence of our relationship with Him.We’ll also talk about how love isn’t something we manufacture through our own effort. Instead, it’s something that flows from first receiving Christ’s love and allowing the Holy Spirit to transform us from the inside out.Whether you’re just beginning your walk with Christ or you’ve been following Him for years, this conversation is an invitation to examine your heart, reflect on the way you love others, and allow God to continue cultivating the fruit only He can produce.Scriptures Discussed• 1 Corinthians 13• John 13:34–35Connect with Gospel Girlies:Follow on Instagram @gospelgirlies— Intagram.com/gospelgirliesFollow on TikTok @gospelgirlies_New episodes drop every Wednesday at 8 PM EST.Don't forget to follow, rate, and review!
