Walking by the Spirit, Not by the Flesh
This week on Cultivate, we explored what it really means to “walk by the Spirit” from Galatians 5. Charlie and Abigail unpacked the ongoing battle between the Spirit and the flesh, emphasizing that the Christian life is not about behavior modification or rule-keeping but about living from the Spirit’s power within us. We discussed how the fruit of the Spirit is a singular fruit—an internal transformation that produces love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. The conversation also highlighted the difference between external religious practices and genuine Spirit-filled living, the role of prayer in discerning God’s voice, and the pitfalls of equating spirituality only with outward actions. This episode challenges us to consider whether our lives reflect the Spirit’s inner work or if we’re still trying to manage our way to goodness.
