In a world that longs for peace of mind, where is it to be found? As followers of Christ, our lives should be ruled by peace, but that is often not the case. In this sermon, Alistair Begg provides Biblical answers to four questions regarding peace: what is it, why is it needed, where is it found, and how is it to be discovered. The great need of every person is peace with God, and it can only be discovered in the person of Jesus Christ. (More resources on the topic of "PEACE"...)

"The fruit of the Spirit." It’s a well-known phrase from a much-loved passage of Scripture. The challenge is in the details, as we pause to consider what the fruit of the Spirit is and to reflect on how well it is displayed in our lives.
In this series, Alistair Begg explains that the fruit of the Spirit is the character of God reflected in the lives of those who are united with Christ. It cannot be produced by an outward change of habit or a system of self-improvement, but is cultivated as God works to conform us to the image of His Son. As we consider the fruit of the Spirit in our lives, Scripture guides us to examine our hearts, challenges our progress, and encourages us to trust God’s promise that He began this work and will complete it. The Fruit of the Spirit provides a study in practical godliness, reminding us that faithful Christian living demonstrates the attractiveness of the Gospel to the world around us.
