Remade From the Inside Out - Matt Brubaker

This week we talked about what real gentleness looks like—not weakness, but strength under control. Galatians 5 reminds us that gentleness is a fruit the Holy Spirit grows in us, not something we force. We looked at Paul’s story: a guy who went from violent persecutor to grace-filled apostle. His life shows that rules and self-help can’t fix what’s broken inside us—only Jesus can.

Most of us have that hidden 1%—the anger, shame, or pain we bury until it eventually blows up. The good news? God isn’t asking us to “try harder.” He wants to transform us from the inside out. When we admit we’re weak, that’s where His power shows up. Gentleness becomes something in us that makes people ask, “Where did that come from?”
