Listen "Necessary Pruning (Audio)"

Episode Synopsis

Service starts with the children returning from camp and sharing about their experiences this past week.




Then Jason and Chane Vanderwatt start worship with a dance to ”Same God.”




Pastor John then begins with a visual lesson on the Father pruning stuff from our lives. And while it may seem unpleasant or even, we mistakenly think, evil at the time, the reality is when the Father is pruning us, He is nearer than we think.




He then goes to Romans 14 to point out a common area of pruning needed by us believers. Sometimes we run commentary on things in the life of others that don't matter. Instead we need grace to allow God to extend His love to those around us and instead pursue the kingdom of God.
