    Jesus compared his disciples to juicy grapes attached to a healthy, living vine. How important is it to bear fruit? What happens when we become lazy or self-centered and stop bearing fruit? How dependent are we on being attached to Christ?

    A Tour of John 15:1-17 We Are Planted and Pruned to Produce Juicy Fruit 1 "I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. 2 He cuts off every branch that doesn’t produce fruit, and he prunes the branches that do bear fruit so they will produce even more. 3 You have already been pruned for ...read more

    But for me I made my stand on the Gospel and I determined after reading Romans 12 that I would serve him 100% and renew my mind so that I could be a faithful witness for Jesus. I told the Lord that I was in this for the long haul.

    My Testimony (renewing the mind) Opening Scripture Text: Romans 12:1-21: 1Therefore, I urge you, brothers, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as living sacrifices, holy and pleasing to God—this is your spiritual act of worship. 2Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but ...read more

    The Call Of Jesus Series

    While Jesus announces for the first time to his disciples his call to the cross, He calls us to confess who he is and calls us to live a crucified life.

Other times I’ve been on the list for VA loans - except I’m not a veteran. I’ve received calls for ...read more
