A Branch in the Vine

I am the vine; you are the branches. If you abide in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit. Apart from me you can do nothing.

COMING SOON: Fall Book Club

August 19, 2012/ Jeremy Loyd

Coming later in September...a study in a truly life-changing book: The Rest of the Gosp el: When the Partial Gospel Has Worn You Out, by Dan Stone and David Gregory.

Having God's forgiveness is wonderful. Spending eternity with God is great. But for now, where is the abundant life Jesus promised? Why is the Christian life such a struggle? Because getting forgiven is only half of the gospel! The rest of the gospel is not us striving on our own to be good Christians, but Christ in us, living His life through us as we rest in him.

Get your book, subscribe to this blog, and get ready for our "discussion" here on line in a few weeks.

If you live in the Dayton, Ohio area and would like to join a live discussion group, contact me for details.
