The Fruit of the Spirit is Goodness
Wednesday, 17 September, 2025
This episode of the Radically Christian Podcast continues the series on the fruit of the Spirit, focusing on goodness with guest Jordan Arnold, minister at the Church of Christ in Falls Church, Virginia.Arnold defines biblical “goodness” as more than simply avoiding evil; it is active, courageous, and transformative. It’s goodness “with an edge,” the kind that rolls up its sleeves, risks reputation, and changes lives. They stress that such goodness isn’t meant to draw attention to the individual but to point people toward God. Good works serve as witness, drawing others to glorify the Father. They also highlight the communal aspect: the Spirit cultivates fruit not just in individuals but in the whole church, making love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control the marks of Spirit-filled community.The conversation closes with encouragement for believers to pray for goodness, to pursue it in fellowship with others, and to allow God’s Spirit to keep forming it within them. Goodness, they emphasize, is underrated in our culture but essential in reflecting Christ’s character to the world.Links and Resources* VidAngel (use code radically at signup)Note: Some links may be affiliate links.
