Why does life feel so busy… but still a little hollow?
In this message from John 15, Jesus’ final “I AM” statement—“I am the vine; you are the branches”—speaks straight to one of our deepest needs: connection. We chase identity through success, schedules, and self-improvement, but Jesus says real life is found only when we stay connected to Him.
In this sermon by Preaching Minister Gordon Dabbs, Ph.D., we explore:
- Why treadmill living leaves us exhausted but unfulfilled
- What it really means to “abide” in Christ
- How God’s pruning is preparation, not punishment
- How connection to Jesus produces lasting joy and real fruit
