    What if your life's greatest achievements still left you feeling empty? Join us as Pastor Chris May reflects on John 15:1-11, revealing profound insights on living a purpose-driven life. Through personal anecdotes from his ten years in ministry and the inspiring story of former atheist Jim Tickner, Pastor Chris explores the universal quest for meaning and how true fulfillment is only found by abiding in Jesus.

    We continue by tracing the grand biblical narrative, starting from the world's descent into chaos to God's covenant with Abraham, and how Jesus Christ fulfilled what Israel could not as the True Vine. Pastor Chris explains how, empowered by the Holy Spirit, Jesus' disciples are called to bear spiritual fruit and continue His work, even doing greater deeds in His physical absence. This chapter serves as a powerful reminder that our spiritual transformation begins and ends with Christ's life flowing through us.

    At the close of the message, Pastor Chris calls the church to daily evaluate their "fruit-bearing." Below are some helpful questions for reflection.

    1. 📣 Proclamation: Did people learn more about Jesus today because of my presence?

    2. 🏥 Healing: Did my presence bring peace and healing to those around me today, or did my presence leave people feeling wounded and torn down?

    3. 👥 Friend of Sinners: Did I invite sinners into a better life by showing them the love of God, or did I avoid them, ignore them, or judge them?

    4. ⛪ Sacrifice: Did I use my time, talent, and treasure to meet the needs of others today, or did I only attend to my own needs and desires?

    We are currently recording season four of the Real Friends Podcast. To listen to previous episodes, go to myrealchurch.org or find us on Spotify or Apple Podcasts.
