I have to tell you, when I first began my assignment I rejected the initial outline that was the familiar "fruit of the spirit" stuff. I told the good folks at DiscipleLand, "teaching kids about the fruit of the spirit is like teaching someone how to be a banana. I'd rather teach someone how to grow bananas, or how to grow spiritual fruit than do another series on the fruit of the Spirit." They quickly agreed, and let me write a fresh approach on the topic. So you won't be seeing lessons on what are love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, etc. Instead, you will discover a series on what must take place in our life for those fruits to grow out of our lives naturally. For a banana tree does not work at growing bananas - it simply grows them because it is a banana tree!
