Are you embarrassed by your character flaws? Wish you could be more patient? More kind? More loving? More joyful? If you answered yes to any of those questions, keep listening, friend, because you’re in the right place.This week on the podcast, I’m joined by my college professor Dr. Dan Estes from Cedarville University, who first introduced me to this idea of praying through the Fruit of the Spirit. It was such a joy to talk with him again after all these years, and I know you will be encouraged by our conversation.I'm inviting you to join me in praying through the Fruit of the Spirit this summer, one trait each week, in our new season of the Prayers of REST podcast. Because prayer changes things, and God changes us through prayer.Let's spend 10 minutes each day praying for God to work the Fruit of His Spirit in our lives. Our new season of the Prayers of REST podcast will help you:Recite God's GoodnessExpress Your NeedinessSeek His Stillness, andTrust His Faithfulness, all focused on one part of the Fruit of the Spirit each week.We'll do this over and over again each week. Love. Joy. Peace. Patience. Kindness. Goodness. Faithfulness. Gentleness. Self-Control. Each week, a new invitation. Each day, new fruit. And at the end of the summer, my hope and prayer is that we'll look more like Jesus than we do today. So grab a few friends, start a group text, and subscribe to the Prayers of REST podcast to get weekly prayer episodes straight to your phone: www.prayersofrest.com/fruit.
