The Root Beneath the Fruit Bible Study Guide | Identify Hidden Bitterness and Grow Spiritually Bitterness does not always look like anger. Sometimes it hides beneath control, comparison, offense, envy, manipulation, and even “being nice.” This study guide helps you examine the fruit in your life so you can identify the root beneath it and deal with bitterness before it spreads. What This Study Reveals This Bible study guide walks through the hidden nature of bitterness and how it can quietly influence speech, motives, relationships, giving, control, and spiritual discernment.
