Sunday Extra – April 13th, 2025
Goodness
In this sermon titled Since We Live by the Spirit, Jeff Arnold, who is on the pastoral staff at a church in Jacksonville, Florida, shares God’s Word with us today on Sunday Extra. During a sermon series called Since We Live by the Spirit, Jeff explores the fruit of the Spirit—specifically goodness—through the lens of pursuit. Rather than striving to manufacture spiritual fruit through effort alone, Jeff invites us to pursue Christ Himself, trusting that true transformation flows naturally from a deep relationship with Him. Drawing from personal reflection and his own spiritual journey, he encourages listeners to move from performance-based faith to a life rooted in the presence of Jesus. Jeff is part of one of our mentor groups, Soul Friends.
Never Weak or Weary
This past year, Jeff Arnold and his family walked a profound path of sacrificial love—opening their home to two young girls in need of refuge after the loss of their mother. Please join us in praying for Jeff and his family as they continue to extend Christ’s goodness by offering shelter, love, and care to these little ones.
Let’s also pray for LFM’s Rich Hurst as he leads a visioning retreat for a church in New York State. As we do, we remember that our Lord “never grows weak or weary. No one can measure the depths of his understanding” (Isaiah 40:28 NLT).
