Today on the podcast, we’re continuing to talk about what it looks like to walk in Fruitful Fellowship because we are led by the Holy Spirit. Galatians 5 reminds us that as we walk with Jesus, the Spirit produces love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, and self control in our lives.

And today we get to sit at the table with Kelley's husband, Erik, to talk about what developing the fruit of Peace has looked like in their lives. Kelley and Erik have walked through a lot together, and through every joy and every struggle, God has been faithful, continuing to lead their steps as they try to keep their eyes on Jesus. That is the challenge for each of us, KEEP OUR EYES on JESUS - the author and perfector of our faith.

We pray that today you are encouraged to keep walking and stay in step with the ONE who loves and desires FRUITFUL fellowship with you and those around you.
