In the pursuit of a vibrant Christian life – we can never bypass our need to stay closely connected to the life-giving presence of Jesus. This is to recognise that there are priorities to be pursued that position us to receive ongoing spiritual replenishment. It’s also to discover what it means to “keep in step with the Spirit” and be led by the Lord.
The goal of our spiritual life is spiritual formation – where we focus on how to deepen our relationship with God. Since no one can do this for us, we can only experience this as we nurture our relationship with Jesus. For too long, the modern Church has made ministry performance its priority. But downplaying the need to attend to one’s spiritual formation in favour of “doing things for God” – overlooks how success in the Christian life flows from the strength of our connection to God.
In the parable of “The Vine and the Branches” in John 15:1–17, Jesus presents a teaching for how His followers can flourish in their spiritual life. Through it, Jesus asserts Himself as the true Vine who supplies strength to each connecting branch. The branches are His followers – who will only experience life-in-the-Spirit by maintaining a vital connection to the Vine.
In this two-part teaching, Jeremy will provide us with vital insights and practical keys to assist us in our journey into spiritual growth. When embraced, these will enable us to manifest godly fruit and experience a continual supply of the live-giving presence of Jesus.
Topics covered, include:
The benefits of nurturing our connection in God
How the spiritual fruit of “joy” can be an ongoing experience
Why submitting to God’s pruning is vital to life-in-the-Spirit
10 Characteristics of a Fruitful Christian Life
The dangers of pride to spiritual growth
How the Holy Spirit empowers our life in Jesus
And many more!
