In John 15, Jesus gives his disciples a strong picture of how to live a fruitful life and the key is abidance. But in today's world, so full of distractions, how can we actually abide with Jesus? The word picture that Jesus gives us of a vine and branches helps with the answer. In order to produce fruit, a vine needs the support of a trellis, structure to thrive. The same is true of our life - in order to produce fruit, we need a structure - a "rule of life."
Isaiah 40:1-11 "A voice calling out: In the Wilderness, prepare the way..."
Every time Jesus takes the bread in his hands, he blesses it, breaks it, and gives it. These three acts of communion reflect our lives.

Drew Jackson from Hope Church, Lower East Side shares about how the church is meant to set up shop along the dividing walls of society - being formed by a different narrative than what culture tells us.
There is a big difference between guilt and shame, but God's grace addresses both. When our guilt collides with the magnitude of God's grace, we are released from the shackles of shame and freed to do the good work that has been prepared for us.
