John 15:9-17

Tune in as Pastor Josh teaches from Jesus’ farewell discourse in John 15 this morning:

“If we look at these verses completely out of their context, ignoring everything Jesus has said up to this point, there is a possibility of reading this passage in such a way that completely fails to recognize the good news of what Jesus is teaching…Just like branches with their vine, it is when we abide in Christ’s love that we receive a life-giving flow, when we will begin to produce the fruit of obedience.. This is so central to what it means when our church endeavors to be gospel-centered'.  It is to abide in Christ’s love — revelling, celebrating in the good news of the gospel daily, together and alone.”
