Tap/click here for the sermon reflection guide! In John 15, Jesus identifies himself as the true vine and explains that we, as the branches, must stay connected to him in order to bear fruit.

Click here to view the Sermon Reflection Guide. “Turn the other cheek” might just be one of Jesus’ most difficult sayings. Does he really mean that when others mistreat us, we should allow them to continue? On the contrary! This sermon delves into the context behind this passage and the surprising dignity it offers us as God’s children, made in God…

Click here to view the Sermon Reflection Guide. As followers of Christ, we choose a life marked by the Fruit of the Spirit (love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control).
