Life on the Vine

Sabbath, March 11 - Part 10 of 13 - Pursuing a Compelling Vision. In this message we imagine the church as "a community of disciples." In John 15, Jesus paints a vivid image of life lived in fellowship with the Trinity - life on the vine. This life is lived together. It is a life fruitfulness, not individually, but as a community. The fruit of the community is the fruit of the Spirit which Paul elaborate on in Galatians 5.

QUOTE

Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that. Hate multiplies hate, violence multiplies violence, and toughness multiplies toughness in a descending spiral of destruction.... The chain reaction of evil - hate begetting hate, wars producing more wars - must be broken, or we shall be plunged into the dark abyss of annihilation.
- Martin Luther King, Jr.
