Fruit from a Root : A Study of the Fruit of the Spirit

Every fruit must have a root, a stem or plant, and a branch from which to grow.

This is true in our natural world, and it is also evident in our lives as followers of Christ.

In Fruit from a Root: A Study of the Fruit of the Spirit through the Eyes of a Little Girl on a Farm, author Norma Cruse reveals how you can be a powerful fruit bearer. Originating from the Root producing the Tender Plant, as Isaiah prophesied in Isaiah 53, the fruit of the Spirit is produced from the Root of God, Jesus Christ, and as the branch, you bear this precious fruit.

As Cruse conveys the necessity of bearing the fruit of the Spirit, she also simplifies this daunting task.

Discover the freedom of walking in Christ as Cruse dispels any erroneous perceptions you may have had of not being able to bear this fruit. Raised on a farm where her mom and dad grew massive fruit and vegetable crops, Cruse takes you on a journey of experiencing the beauty, wonder, and power of the fruit of the Spirit through the perspective of a child learning the lessons of farm life.

By sharing the impact farming had on her, Cruse shows you how scriptural references of agricultural illustrations come alive on the farm.

Fruit from a Root will fill your heart with an exuberance for cultivating a fruit-bearing life founded upon the nurturing soil of God's Word. Through Fruit from a Root, you will be amazed at just how able you are to be a "much fruit bearer" by doing what you are called to do and allowing God to do His part.

May Cruse's inspirational study encourage you to embrace every opportunity to bear the fruit of the Spirit.
