  • S3 Ep45: Putting Down Roots aka Fruit of the Spirit #3
    Nov 3 2024
    In his sermon, Pastor Nick explores the concept of being rooted in the Spirit of God as part of the ongoing "Fruit of the Spirit" series. Drawing parallels between physical nourishment and spiritual well-being, he emphasizes how what we consume—whether in terms of food or spiritual enrichment—directly affects our growth and the fruit we bear in our lives. He highlights the importance of being mindful of our choices, suggesting that many of the activities we indulge in, like excessive consumption of junk food or mindless engagement with social media, may leave us feeling empty, much like a tree that fails to grow because its soil is devoid of nutrients. Pastor Nick challenges the congregation to assess what they are rooted in spiritually. He warns against substituting genuine fulfillment found in God for fleeting earthly pleasures and urges listeners to reflect on their lives, questioning whether they are feeding on experiences that nourish their spirit or simply chasing after momentary satisfaction. Through a scriptural lens, he illustrates that true joy and satisfaction come from being rooted in God's Spirit, which produces lasting fruit such as love and joy. As he prepares for the next part of the series, he leaves the audience with a reflective question: what in their lives needs to be removed to make space for the spiritual nourishment God desires for them?
