"Culture Wars and the Fruit of the Spirit"

Jun 29, 2025  •  Rev. Charlie Holt

In this sermon, Rev. Charlie Holt explores Paul’s letter to the Galatians and what it reveals about the real “culture war” — not just in the church, but within our own hearts. Drawing from Galatians 5, he reflects on how divisions and judgments can arise among believers and how we are called instead to breathe grace, show love, and be guided by the Holy Spirit.

Through personal stories and practical insights, Rev. Holt reminds us that true transformation doesn’t come from legalism or rules but from a converted heart bearing the fruits of the Spirit: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control.

📖 Scripture: Galatians 5:13–26

✨ Key Themes: Unity in Christ, the danger of culture wars, freedom in the Spirit, the power of love and joy in community.

Join us as we learn how to navigate differences with grace and live in the freedom and love that Christ calls us to share.
