    based on 75 ratings

    Which Jesus do you want to meet – gentle and riding on a donkey, or carrying a sword and riding on a white horse?

    What happens when Jesus inspects your life? He cursed the fig tree because it didn’t bear fruit - why? And how do we bear fruit for our Savior?

    I have three fruit trees in my backyard. I would not call it an orchard – just three trees – a plum, a pear, and an apple. It’s not an orchard, nor am I an orchardist – or whatever you are when you have an orchard. I think my trees know it too – they get together every winter and say "how are we ...read more

    Those who bear fruit have more freedom and fulfillment in life.

    In the Bible, a fruitful life is described as one that is producing good things. God’s Words teaches a lot on this topic so it must be very important to God. God wants to bless your life.
