Description:
In this concluding message of our Fruit of the Spirit series at River Church Elgin, Pastor Mike Herron explores the final two qualities Paul lists in Galatians 5:22–23—gentleness and self-control. Drawing from biblical examples and practical application, Pastor Mike reminds us that gentleness is not weakness but strength under control, and that true self-control flows from a Spirit-governed life. This message calls us to reflect Christ both outwardly in how we treat others and inwardly through a surrendered heart—because fruit grows not by trying, but by abiding in Christ.
