The apostle Paul paints a beautiful picture when he describes the fruit of the Spirit but all too often, we reduce this list of virtues into a checklist of attributes to pursue and strive for. However, pastor and author Eugenia Gamble contends that this understanding is backwards. By tending that relationship, the virtues of God develop and blossom as a fruit grows on a well-tended tree. Tending the Wild Garden explores the true meaning behind each of the virtues in Paul's list, guiding us to discover anew what it means to be a deeply loved child of God indwelt by God's Spirit. Gamble helps us to move beyond the checklist mentality of traditional understandings of the fruit of the Spirit, to cultivate our relationship with God, and to uproot the "weeds" that could threaten the flourishing of the fruit in our lives. Key Features of this Bible Study: Ten Chapters/Sessions introduce the garden and explore each of the nine aspects of the fruit of the Spirit Six daily devotions in each chapter with daily Scripture, reflections, and spiritual practices Let the fruit of the Spirit be more than just words--they're the living expressions of God's love within you.
