About
Today on the Daily Nugget, Mike continues our study through the book of
Galatians by exploring the fifth fruit of the Spirit: kindness. The Greek
word chrēstotēs speaks of generous goodness that actively seeks the benefit
of others. Biblical kindness isn't merely being nice—it's generously
bringing the goodness of God into the lives of others. When we live by the
flesh, we produce rotten fruit like coldness, selfishness, miserliness, and
withholding good from those around us. Or we settle for plastic fruit,
giving only to get something in return or giving out of our abundance in
ways that cost us little. But the Holy Spirit produces genuine kindness—a
generous, sacrificial heart that freely gives because it has first received
the extravagant generosity of God. Join me as we discover how God's
kindness transforms us into people who joyfully bless others with the same
grace He has shown us.
