Gentleness

Aug 30, 2026    Josh Rhodes

When tension rises, it’s easy to answer harshness with more harshness. But Jesus calls us to a different way. Continuing our Nine series, Pastor Josh explains why gentleness isn’t passive or weak, but strength under God’s control—and how the Holy Spirit can help us respond with humility and care, even in difficult moments.
