Hi dear friends! We have absolutely loved digging into the Word of God with you as we study the foundation for the Fruit of the Spirit through our Flourish study. We have looked at what it means to truly abide in the Lord and have our hearts transformed by His grace. We have seen the real meaning of agape love as it’s demonstrated by God and captured in Scripture – this sacrificial, God-created, everlasting love that changes us from the inside out. This agape love is the foundational and first Fruit of the Spirit that all the other fruit flows from, and we are eager to see how the remaining eight qualities are strengthened when they are founded in this love.
