Sermon Title: The Fruit of the Spirit – Gentleness
Speaker: Pastor Kenny Stetler
Date: March 30, 2025 – PM Service
Text: Galatians 5:23
In a world that prizes dominance, Pastor Kenny Stetler offers a powerful, Spirit-filled vision of gentleness—not as weakness, but as strength under control. This sermon challenges the cultural myth that power must always be loud, forceful, or self-promoting. Instead, true Christlike power is shown in humility, restraint, and submission to God.
Through Scripture and vivid illustrations—including a funeral sermon to gang members—Pastor Kenny reminds us that meekness is not passive softness, but courageous self-control in the face of provocation. Gentleness chooses patience over retaliation, service over selfishness, and submission over self-glory.
True gentleness is impossible in our own strength—it is a supernatural fruit produced only by the Spirit of God. It is the way of Jesus, who humbled Himself to the cross, and it is the path to true greatness.
Listen and discover the radical power of Spirit-formed gentleness—the strength that stoops, the grace that endures, and the heart that reflects Christ.
