Meekness & Self-Control

When you hear the word meekness, what thoughts enter your mind? Do think of weakness for instance? Or perhaps you imagine someone who is shy or timid. Our modern culture has little use for this Biblical virtue. It runs contrary to our age where an individualistic, survival-of-the-fittest type mentality is so prevalent. To find out what the Bible has to say about meekness as a fruit of the Spirit, in this lecture Dr. R.C. Sproul speaks on meekness and self-control.
