Living the Good Life: Living Patiently
Jul 6, 2025 • Sean Couch
Continuing our series Living the Good Life, we learn from across the New Testament that patience is important to living the good life. From these passages, we learn that Biblical patience is an outworking of the Spirit of God in the life of someone following Jesus.
The Bible teaches to live patiently with people, patiently with problems, and patiently with promises. We need to be graciously patient in our relationships, patient to let God shape us in the most painful of problems, and faithfully patient in the promises of Jesus. We can be patience because God has been and is exceedingly patient with us, in his infinite mercy holding back the judgment we deserve to freely extend salvation to us.
