In the Bible the book of Galatians has that well known passage But the fruit of the Spirit is love joy peace patience kindness goodness faithfulness gentleness and self control Against such things there is no law Galatians 5 22 23. Sometimes keeping to this can seem like a lofty ambition challenging with all the circumstances that life throws in our direction But this lovely gentle book from Kristin Elizabeth Couch shows that in our daily lives even in the small things we can intentionally take positive steps in our spiritual growth that will ultimately help us in becoming Christ like. The book takes a chapter for each of the fruits of the Spirit shows how it is applied in ways that have deeply impacted the author s life anecdotes that highlight their power in a world where often these things are missing Then she explains in an approachable way their importance their value and why Christians can be making a difference in the world if they follow the teachings.
