Philip Kenneson wrote a book called, Life On The Vine: Cultivating the Fruit of the Spirit in Christian Community. I was intrigued by his chapter headings and how they illustrate the difficulty of living Christianly in a non-Christian context:
* Cultivating Love in the Midst of Market-Style Exchanges
* Cultivating Joy in the Midst of Manufactured Desire
* Cultivating Peace in the Midst of Fragmentation
* Cultivating Patience in the Midst of Productivity
* Cultivating Kindness in the Midst of Self-Sufficiency
* Cultivating Goodness in the Midst of Self-Help
* Cultivating Faithfulness in the Midst of Impermanence
* Cultivating Gentleness in the Midst of Aggression
* Cultivating Self-Control in the Midst of Addiction
Please use these to pray for our family as we minister in the midst of a sin cursed world.
