In this sermon, Pastor Alex explores the Fruit of the Spirit, focusing on *goodness*. While goodness can be hard to define, it's much more than simply avoiding sin or being nice. Pastor Alex dives into how our understanding of "good" often shifts depending on societal and personal perspectives, but biblical goodness has a clear, purposeful meaning.

True goodness in a Christian context is both morally upright and active. It’s about doing good works and showing the world what God’s kingdom looks like in action. Drawing from 1 Peter 2:14, Ephesians 2:8-10, and Romans 8:27-29, Pastor Alex reminds us that biblical goodness is meant to heal, restore, and transform. Whether it's through justice, mercy, or caring for others, goodness reflects God's will and calls us to participate in His work of restoration.
