What a Garden Teaches Us About Spiritual Growth

In this standalone study, Lance Lambert draws spiritual lessons from the garden at Halford House. He walks through what plants need to grow — light, heat, water, and food — and ties each to a corresponding need in the Christian life: walking in the light, abiding in God's love, drinking from the spring of living water, and feeding on the milk and meat of Scripture.He explores the hidden power of life within a plant (and within us, in Christ), the necessity of pruning, division, and staking, and closes with common "troubles in the garden" — weeds, disease, and insects — as pictures of the things that choke or drain spiritual growth. A simple, image-rich message on how God cultivates fruit, form, and beauty in His people.www.lancelambert.org Chapters (00:00:02) - A garden party for Nigel Shaw(00:01:03) - A Watered Garden(00:03:15) - The Basic Needs of Plants(00:09:51) - All the essentials of human life(00:15:56) - "Abide in My Love"(00:16:52) - Wonders of the Spirit(00:23:15) - Christ within the life of a tree(00:30:02) - The adaptability of Christian life(00:37:19) - How to Overcome Obstacle(00:43:38) - Coming and Coming: The Wind of Life(00:44:56) - Practical Pruning in the Garden(00:50:27) - Crucified Paul(00:55:09) - God's discipline in the Christian life(01:00:22) - The Prisoner of the Lord(01:04:50) - Troubles in the Garden(01:08:37) - How to get weeds out of the garden(01:09:22) - Physical, Spiritual Mildew(01:14:19) - How to Get Rid of the Night Spirits(01:20:03) - God's Garden
