Joy and Peace

Charisma and CharacterSteve Gregg
Steve Gregg delivers a talk on the Christian concept of joy and peace as fruits of the Spirit, as listed in Galatians 5. He notes that joy is often associated with levitation in occult practices, but in Scripture, it is something that exists deeper within the soul than simply outward happiness. Peace, he explains, is a supernatural God-originated thing that exists regardless of external circumstances. Both joy and peace are seen as normative states for Christians, associated with the work of the Holy Spirit in the believer's life.
