Agathos (Greek), describes that which, a person being good in character or constitution, will be beneficial in its effect on others.

"Good" and "goodness" are two very popular words in the vocabulary of our day. We like to think that what we do is "good" to benefit others. But what really is "goodness"? Before we consider "being" good and "doing" good, we will be needing a working definition of goodness. The measuring rod and the standard has been set by God and not by humans. God is the measure of all things, including goodness and what it means. So we'll attempt to start with an understanding of the "goodness" of God as a harvest of the Spirit's working in our lives.

But the fruit of the spirit is Love, Joy, Peace, Patience, Kindness, Goodness, Faithfulness, Gentleness, and Self-Control.... - Galations 5:22–23

In these Bible studies from best-selling author Robert Strand, you will learn about yourself and how to relate to others as you gain a deeper understanding of what it means to be in Christ.

God is good!
Review by Jessica
I’ve seen time and time again God’s goodness he’s lavished on me! The questions are going to start some really good conversations between my girls and myself. Even though these books are “small” they pack a lot of great biblical truth! We all need biblical truth!! Thanks Master Books!!
Love the Book
Review by Nancy
This book may be small but, it is packed with so many nuggets of truth based on scripture. What a great addition for your morning basket.
Great book!
Review by Natalie
This book explores being “good” from a societal standpoint versus God’s definition of good. It includes practical application to increase gentleness in our own lives.
Good job explaining
Review by Heidi
Does a good job explaining this fruit...helped me better understand what it all entails.
Challenges reader to understand the basis of what is good
Review by Karie
The book starts by having the reader consider where we discover what is good. I appreciate starting with God's very character because there seems to be alot of opinion about what "good" things are. Unlike the other books in this series that I've reviewed so far, this one kind of takes some twists and turns in the middle that are a little confusing. However, at the end, the reader is once again brought back to think about how his/her ideas of goodness match the Bible's definition.
