From our series, Light: Selected teachings in the book of John.

This morning Chris Henderson Next Generation Pastor spoke out of John 15: 1-12 about the importance of Abiding with Jesus every day.

John 15:4-5 New King James Version   4 Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me. 5 “I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing.

What does it mean to Abide with Jesus? We learn, through this message, that we can bear fruit only through our constant connection to Jesus. Enjoy our guest speaker Dave DeVries, executive director of VINIA. https://vinia.org/visit us at: conejochurch.com

From our series, Light: Selected teachings in the book of John.

For the remainder of this season, we are releasing the Main Session messages from this year's CGN International Conference.This year's conference was held at Reliance Church in Temecula, CA - and the Theme was: “The Way Forward: Ministry According to Jesus” - in which we studied through the Upper-Room Discourse in John 13-17.The fifth message of the conference was taught by Pastor Kike Torres, the Lead Pastor of Horizonte Querétaro, in Mexico. Kike is also a trained biblical counselor, and has been involved in planting several churches in Mexico and the United States.The text of this message is John 15:1-8, and it is titled: “The Vine and the Branches”

Send us a text In a culture that profits from our exhaustion and demands a hot take on everything, how do we stay with the real Jesus? This episode is a single-voice, honest walk through abiding and pace—moving from performance to participation, from hurry to the easy yoke. We name the pressure to react to every news cycle and every social wave, the chorus of second-hand “takes on Jesus,” and the stigma that calls burnout or confusion weakness. Along the way we practice stepping back toward God—not escaping life, but living within God-given limits—with lived scenes from the office, the kitchen, and the phone in your hand. Expect a grounded invitation to discern Jesus' voice, receive your limits as part of discipleship, be “late to a take,” and let belovedness set your pace. Quiet, practical, and deeply hopeful. Support the show If you have any questions about the subjects covered in today's episode you can find us on Facebook at the links below or you can shoot me an email at joe@buddywalkwithjesus.com One Stop Shop for all the links Linktr.ee/happydeamedia

John 15:2 | God's Good and Painful Pruning How does God prune us? Through trials, difficulties, discipline, and suffering Why does God prune us? Because He loves us and wants us to bear more fruit John 15:2b, "...every branch that does bear fruit he prunes, that it may bear more fruit." God's pruning is never meaningless. It is always wise, every bit is necessary, nothing is wasted. It is always and only ever for our good. What kind of "fruit" does God seek by pruning us? EIGHT REASONS GOD PRUNES US: To purify our faith like gold [1 Peter 1:3-7] To help us grow in obedience [Hebrews 12:11] To increase our assurance [John 15:8] To make us more humble [2 Corinthians 12:7-10] To give us full, otherwordly joy [John 15:11] To enable us to comfort others [2 Corinthians 1:3-4] To prepare for us an eternal weight of glory [2 Corinthians 4:16-18] To give us deeper fellowship with Jesus [Philippians 3:10-11]

The Christian Life is meant to be lived in fellowship with Jesus. Today, we'll look at John 15 where Jesus instructs us on how to abide in fellowship with Him. Join us in this crucial chapter for living in fellowship with Jesus.

Welcome to the second week of our Nehemiah series with special guest Elizabeth Woodson! In this week's readings, we see the internal struggles that arise within the people of God as they continue to navigate life after exile.

Speaker: Nate HoldridgeText: John 15:1-16:4Overview: In this sermon from Calvary Monterey, Pastor Nate Holdridge examines John 15 to reveal the blueprint for a life of full and lasting joy. Jesus teaches that this joy is not a feeling we chase but the result of cultivating three essential relationships: an upward relationship of abiding in Him, an inward relationship of loving His people, and an outward relationship of resilient witness to the world. This teaching provides a clear and practical diagnostic for our spiritual health, inviting us to find our ultimate satisfaction in our connection to Christ and His body.Link to Discussion Questions

As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me. 5 “I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing. 6 If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them and throw them into the fire, and they are burned. 7 If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you. 8 By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; so you will be My disciples.

When you hear the phrase "The Great Commission," what is your initial reaction? There can be a tendency in the church to relegate the carrying out of this command to those who are "called," or perhaps to those of a certain personality type.

Clinical psychologist Alexis Abernethy explores burnout, Sabbath rest, and resilience—reframing rest as spiritual practice for individuals and communities.“For me, it's knowing that the Lord has made me as much to work as much to be and to be still and know that he is God.”On this episode, clinical psychologist Alexis Abernethy (Fuller Seminary) joins Macie Bridge to discuss burnout, Sabbath, worship, mental health, and resilience in the life of the church. Defining burnout through its dimensions of emotional exhaustion, depersonalization, and reduced sense of accomplishment, Abernethy reflects on how church life can intensify these dynamics even as it seeks to heal them. Drawing from scripture, theology, psychology, and her own experience in the Black church and academic worlds, she reorients us to Sabbath as more than self-care: a sacred practice of being still before God. Sabbath, she argues, is not a quick fix but a preventive rhythm that sustains resilience in leaders and congregations alike. Along the way, she points to the necessity of modeling rest, the impact of daily and weekly spiritual rhythms, and the communal posture that makes Sabbath transformative.Episode Highlights“For me, it's knowing that the Lord has made me as much to work as much to be and to be still and know that he is God.”“Often people have overextended themselves in face of crises, other circumstances over a period of time, and it's just not really sustainable, frankly, for anyone.”“We act as if working hard and excessively is dutiful and really what the Lord wants—but that's not what He wants.”“When you are still with the Lord, you look different when you're active.”“Sabbath rest allows you to literally catch your own breath, but also then be able to see what the congregation needs.”Helpful Links and ResourcesThat Their Work Will Be a Joy, Kurt Frederickson & Cameron LeeHoward Thurman, Meditations of the HeartEmily Dickinson, “Some Keep the Sabbath” (Poetry Foundation)About Alexis AbernethyAlexis Abernethy is a clinical psychologist and professor in the School of Psychology & Marriage and Family Therapy at Fuller Seminary.

Whether you make New Year's resolutions or not, you probably have areas of your life that you would like to change. But the path to change, as we all know, isn't always an easy one.

If you consider yourself a follower of Jesus, you probably refer to yourself as a "Christian." But how often do you call yourself a "disciple"?
