How's Your Garden Growing?

HPUMC - Sanctuary Sermons (Traditional Worship)

Love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. What a list! Who wouldn’t want a little more of any of those blessings in our lives? Who wouldn’t want more of any of those blessings in our community? It turns out that God longs to bless creation—not just a little—but with an abundance of every one of those virtues. The Apostle Paul called them the fruits of the Holy Spirit, and he implored Jesus’ followers to allow God to cultivate a garden of growth inside of all of us. This sermon is the beginning of our journey together to do just that!
