Patience by the Spirit

How do you grow patience in a world that moves at the speed of now? In Week 4 of our series, “Life by the Spirit” we dive into one of the hardest—and most essential—fruits of the Spirit: patience.

Brad explores why waiting is not a punishment, setback, or curse—but preparation. Using real-life examples from Scripture and his own life, he unpacks how God uses waiting seasons to:    

• Strengthen our faith and character

• Prepare us for what He has promised

• Refine our hearts to desire Him more than the gifts

• Equip us to bear the other fruits of the Spirit
