Side Effects

This Sunday I am kicking off a brand new series called “Side-Effects.” This one has been bouncing around in my head/heart for a couple of years now.
Most medicine prescribed today seems to come with a warning about various side-effects that may occur.
Following Jesus comes with what should be some side-effects in our lives. Paul spoke about them in Galatians. He used the metaphor of fruit in our lives. Following Jesus should produce fruit…specifically things like love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. What kind of fruit is being produced in your life? It’s a great question. I’m itching to get back to teaching after my summer break…hope I see you there!
