The Holy Spirit’s Role as Fruit Inspector

• The root system determines the quality and quantity of fruit.

• Draw 2 trees, resourced and unresourced.

• Transformation from 6.2 to 10?

Dissecting an incident

• Describe what happened. • Focus on what you did, said, how your felt,

regardless of what the other person did.• Does this expose a sin?• If so, confess it to God, repent from your heart,

ask forgiveness of others if necessary.• Ask God to show you where you need to open

up to receive more from Him to reduce the vulnerability to this pattern of sin.

Discipleship Buddy

• Your second piton in the ascent to the summit of a Holy Spirit empowered life/church!
