The Fruitful Life by Jerry Bridges
Headline: How can we put on the garments of grace? As we become serious followers of Christ, we want to live loving, joyful, anxiety-free lives. Yet loving our enemies seems impossible. Even being patient with our family is often difficult. How can we put on the gentle garments of grace when we're so busy battling our old behavior patterns? In The Fruitful Life, beloved author Jerry Bridges explores the nine aspects of the fruit of the Spirit described in Galatians 5:22-23: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. He clarifies the cultivation process by showing us how to practice them in real life. Bridges says these qualities of character can truly mark our lives if we devote ourselves to a two-fold pursuit: God-centeredness and God-likeness. This book will guide you on that quest by focusing on God's nature as revealed in Scripture and by helping you cultivate the beautiful fruit given by the Holy Spirit.JERRY BRIDGES is a Biblical teacher and author.
