S3 E14. The Gift of Repentance: Staying Close to Jesus
Hello dear friend,
Today we’re talking about self-help from a Christian perspective. I share my journey with self-help, why I ultimately walked away from it, and what I found instead in Jesus Christ.
We'll also talk about some of the dangers Christians should be aware of when engaging with self-help content: how self-improvement can subtly encourage self-reliance instead of dependence on God, lead us to worship false gods, and why true transformation is something only Christ can produce in us.
Most importantly, we'll talk about where lasting hope, fulfilment, and wholeness are actually found, and how to discern between practical wisdom that can be helpful and teachings that pull our focus away from God.

S3 E12. How Do I Know I'm Truly Saved? (The Fruit of the Spirit)
Hello dear friend,
Today we're talking about a question you may have asked yourself: How do I know I'm truly saved? And maybe even more practically, how do I know I'm genuinely walking with God?
We’ll be looking at what Jesus and the Apostle Paul teach about fruitfulness, the Fruit of the Spirit, and why our lives reveal far more about our spiritual condition than our words ever could. We'll unpack what the nine fruits of the Spirit actually mean, and how they help us evaluate our walk with God.
Most importantly, we'll talk about why Christianity is ultimately about relationship, not performance, and how remaining close to Jesus produces the kind of fruit that reflects His character in our lives.
00:00 Welcome & Intro
03:34 Fruit Reveals the Tree
06:00 Fruit of the Spirit Explained
10:25 Warning About the Flesh
12:33 Nine Fruits Overview
13:04 Love Defined Biblically
17:09 Joy Peace and Patience
19:53 Kindness to Self Control
24:59 Why Fruit Matters
26:48 How to Bear Good Fruit
30:52 Final Encourgament & Outro
