Fruitful: Gentleness

Kent Priebe
November 14, 2021

#Galatians 5:22-23; Matthew 5:5; Matthew 11:28-30; John 13:1-15# Kent Priebe's main point is that meekness, or gentleness, is a crucial aspect of the fruit of the Spirit, and it is essential to understand what it means to be meek. He explains that meekness is not weakness, but rather strength under control, and it involves voluntarily submitting to serve others. Kent uses the example of Jesus washing his disciples' feet to illustrate what meekness looks like, highlighting that Jesus, the greatest among them, humbled himself to serve others. To grow in meekness, Kent suggests two ways: discovering and believing in one's true identity as a child of God, and serving others. He emphasizes that serving is not just what Christians do, but it is who they are, and it is the way to grow in meekness and humility, ultimately pointing people to Jesus.
