If you’ve been around here for a bit, you know I’m always looking for simple, gospel-centered ways to disciple our kids in everyday life.
And few themes are as practical (or as foundational) as the Fruit of the Spirit.
Love. Joy. Peace. Patience. Kindness. Goodness. Faithfulness. Gentleness. Self-control.
These aren’t just nice character traits — they’re evidence of the Holy Spirit at work in us. And they give us such a tangible way to talk about growth, obedience, and heart transformation with our kids.
So whether you’re planning summer discipleship rhythms, looking for homeschool Bible resources, prepping for family devotions, or just want Christ-centered books and tools that reinforce biblical character — here are some of my favorite Fruit of the Spirit resources for kids and families.
