I Am the True Vine | I Am (Week 6)

Grace Fellowship Church

Are you spiritually parched? If so, this revelatory sermon could be the spiritual kickstart you need. Drawing from Jesus' powerful vineyard teachings in John 15, Pastor Rex guides you on an imagination-sparking journey toward abundant life and Christlike character. Forget surface-level Christianity - the pastor dynamically redefines "fruitfulness" as the full, moment-by-moment expression of Jesus' nature through your thoughts, attitudes and actions. It's an eye-opening new paradigm that could reset your spiritual compass. From this robust foundation, you'll explore the four key scenarios Jesus outlined regarding spiritual growth and productivity: No Fruit Fruit More Fruit Much Fruit Which one most resonates with your walk today? Pastor Rex paints a breathtaking picture of the "much fruit" life exemplified by love, joy, peace and purpose spilling from every area. But how do you escape stagnation and venture into those lush vineyards of abundant fruitfulness? Get ready to be realigned as the pastor unpacks three essential principles: 1) How God's uncomfortable DISCIPLINE rouses you from seasons of fruitlessness through striking vineyard illustrations. 2) When you're bearing some fruit already, how the Vinedresser's PURPOSEFUL PRUNING ushers fresh intimacy and spiritual impact. 3) For the fruitful, how God beckons you into ever DEEPER awakenings of abiding in Christ's presence and power. From convicting personal accounts of God's pruning...to startling revelations about what "fruit" truly involves...to uplifting visions of overflowing spiritual passion - this sermon will shake up your ideas about flourishing as a branch. Whether you've grown disillusioned by fruitless patterns after decades of church...or you're a new believer sensing God's pruning hand in recent trials...this message could mark your pivotal turn back toward flourishing in Christ in powerful new ways. After all, a withered, anemic spiritual life was never your created purpose. Yet vines often lie choked and drained by lesser priorities or lack of deep soul-abiding with the Vinedresser. This sermon is a summons away from spiritual shriveling toward bearing glorious fruit that shines a beacon to Christ's splendor. So if your soul's crying yes to new awakenings, fresh nourishment, and blossoming transformation - or if you simply need re-centered on the True Vine - then don't miss this landmark message. It could catalyze you into unprecedented domains of abundant fruitfulness. We pray this message from April 14, 2024 will bless you!!
