The text this week is Galatians 5:16-26, which compares the works of the flesh to the fruit of the Spirit. We’ll be worshiping the God who produces his fruit in us, and the visual theme will be “Still Life with Fruit,” especially impressionist versions of that common painting motif.

Worship:
Psalm 63:1-4 O God, you are my God; earnestly I seek you; my soul thirsts for you; my flesh faints for you, as in a dry and weary land where there is no water. 2So I have looked upon you in the sanctuary, beholding your power and glory. 3Because your steadfast love is better than life, my lips will praise you. 4So I will bless you as long as I live; in your name I will lift up my hands.
