“I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in Me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from Me, you can do nothing.” (John 15:5, NIV)
Jesus’ words to His disciples in John 15 remind us that to truly thrive, we must remain connected to Christ. In Him, we find life and peace, and through us, He blesses the world with good fruit. As you watch this encouraging message from Senior Associate Pastor Don McMinn, we pray you are inspired to draw closer to the Lord, not just in today’s challenging circumstances, but always.
