In this episode, we explore Goodness as part of the Fruit of the Spirit.

But what does biblical goodness really mean? And how do we live it in a broken world?

From corrupt offices and reckless drivers to betrayal and injustice — this sermon brings the Gospel close to daily Zambian life. Jesus' example in Luke 22 teaches us that goodness is not about being nice; it's about being faithful, brave, and Spirit-led.

Key Highlights:

– The difference between kindness and goodness

– Why hard times are often the soil where goodness grows

– What it means to reflect the goodness of God in dark places

In this sermon, we explore kindness as one of the fruits of the Spirit found in Galatians 5:22. While the world often associates kindness with being "nice," the Bible calls us to something deeper—kindness that flows from God's love within us.

🔍 In This Episode:

• Why kindness must be rooted in Christ
• The difference between superficial kindness and Spirit-led compassion
• How truth-telling can be the most loving form of kindness
• Stories that illustrate the impact of sincere, everyday acts of care
• The call to make kindness a lifestyle, not an occasional event

🎙️ Quote to remember: "We are kind not because people deserve it, but because of who we are in Christ."

📖 Scriptures referenced:

Galatians 5:22, Ephesians 4:32, Luke 6:35-36, Titus 3:4-7, Colossians 3:12

👂 Listen, reflect, and be challenged to live out the kindness of God—daily.

In this powerful sermon by Pastor Mamwbe, we dive deep into patience, the fourth fruit of the Spirit mentioned in Galatians 5:22. While modern culture trains us to expect everything instantly, the Bible teaches that patience is cultivated—especially through suffering.

What You'll Learn:

• The cultural impatience we all struggle with—and how it affects our spiritual life
• Why patience is not automatic but must be developed over time
• God's method of maturing us through trials (James 1:2-4)
• Real-life and biblical examples that highlight the value of waiting on God
• Practical steps to grow in patience and extend it to others
• How your patient endurance becomes a living testimony to those around you

Takeaway:

Patience is more than endurance—it's an act of surrender, a reflection of Christ, and a witness to a watching world.
