“I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.” John 15:1–2
Pastor Shelley delivered a powerful message centered on John 15, emphasizing the vital importance of staying connected to Jesus Christ, whom he described as the “lifeline.” He taught that feelings of spiritual disconnection don’t mean God has let go - He never does. The sermon stressed that while emotions fluctuate, faith and actively abiding in Christ’s Word provide constant connection. He urged believers to reject negative thoughts and hold fast to God’s promises regardless of circumstances.
