    Contributed by Chris Appleby on Dec 3, 2002
    based on 9 ratings

    As we continue in series on the fruit of the Spirit, we consider fruit of goodness.

    Introductory Considerations 1. It is a word that is used much more than it is understood. Parents tell their children to be good and when a daughter behaves a mother will say "Good girl".
